N3906J (cn 43344) What a beauty...it's a shame that after 62 years of flying, it would only be four months after this shot that this aircraft would crash on departure from Fort Lauderdale's Executive airport on June 13, 2005. In spite of a spectacular fiery crash, there were no deaths in the incident. The pilots heroically managed to steer the plane away from houses and onto NE 56th Street, and when you see the crash photos, it's amazing even they survived.
