My father in law told me aubot an AC Crash at the Vienna Int Airport,
where he took some photos (he is still searching for then, I share, when
he found it)

He told me the AC struck a building during access and lost its engines
and wings.
Th hull slided longe the snowy and deep moist field, noone was hurt.

He said, it must have been 25th odr 27th Dec 196?

Anybody knows of it?
