Plane Crash - Tail Section - Rudder

Here we see the rudder section of the plane's tail, lying where it landed over 30 years ago.



View From the Crash Site


When the plane crashed the first part of it to become disengaged was the rudder section of the tail. It landed below the rest of the crash remains, near the edge of a small cliff - this provides an opening in the tree cover so that, by looking out over the destroyed tail piece, one can get a view out across east Gilford and west Alton to the lake, where Ship and Moose Islands and Wolfeboro Bay can be seen to the east.
