  I believe this is a display of P-51D remains at Le Bourget airport, Paris, France; circa 1975

  Now that's one well-built locomotive! Notice how little the front end was damaged.

• Martin van Duijn said:

  It looks like if the men down there are trying to uphold the wall!

• Cornelius Koelewijn said:

  Great shot. The engine doesn't seem to have any serious damage at all. Does this roundhouse still exist or has it been demolished? Found another shot that was made just after the accident - there's still smoke coming out of the stack: brooksengineeringdesign.com/railroadmuseum.html (about halfway)

Qantas’s first fatal crash, 1927 - State Library of New South Wales

  So Rain Man told us a lie !!!

• Blue Mountains Library, Local Studies said:

  The aircraft was an Airco (later de Havilland DH.9C ) a converted World War I light bomber, that stalled on landing approach. "At first stripped DH.9s were used to carry one passenger behind the pilot in the gunner's position, but later versions, designated DH.9B, added a second passenger seat ahead of the pilot. A second seat behind the pilot was added by extending the rear cockpit in the early DH.9C. Later it had this rear position converted to hold two passengers face to face, protected by a faired dorsal canopy or cabin."

  List of Qantas fatal accidents
  "While Qantas has never had a fatal jet airliner accident, the Australian national airline suffered losses in its early days before the widespread adoption of jets in civilian aviation. These were mainly biplanes or flying boats servicing routes in Queensland and New Guinea."
