Photo Comment

During March 1973, this Convair collided with an Iberia DC-9, and lost part of its left wing while landing at Cognac-Châteaubernard - CNG. The CV-990 managed to carry out an emergency landing but the DC-9 lost control and crashed. The damaged on the Convair was substantial but was repaired.
