Probably one of the last pictures to see this Fairchild F27 of ALM in one piece, when it was still used as a training aid for Hato's fire brigade. It was sunken to become an artificial reef a few years later.

Hurricanes often terrorize the Caribbean between June and December. Being outside the hurricane belt, Curacao and its airport Hato, is often used as an airport of refuge for other aircraft based in the Caribbean. The Puerto Rico ANG sent three of its Hercules to Hato in September 2004 to escape the inclement weather. The Herk was scrapped in 2010.
