Hallo Friends,

the Do-24 did hit a piece of a tree which was floating on the water.
The collision did make a big hole in the front fuselage.
For the moment I do not know if the plane was repared on place.
The fuselage is from the years 1930's.
Wonder how a Catalina or a Canadair would have been in such an accident.

Yours
Papi

That is such a beautiful aircraft, it would be tragic if they could no repair her.
