Crashed short of the runway at Dover AFB after taking off and experiencing an engine malfunction. Luckily there was no fire and, although a number of the crew were injured, there were no fatalities. The aircraft was scrapped not too long after this photo was taken. This photo is copyright © Ralph M. Pettersen, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
