Old DC 3 Plane at Canaima Air Camp

The Canaima airstrip in Venezuela keeps an antique DC 3 plane in its camp.
The village of Canaima in Venezuela is a hub for planes and travellers looking to explore the Canaima National Park and its incredible waterfall, Angel Falls.

The highest waterfall in the world, it was discovered by Jimmy Angel, an American flyer who was looking for gold at the time. The only way to reach the falls is by air, making the Canaima airstrip a hopping necessity. An old DC 3 plane is kept at the airstrip. It sits alone in its complacency, watching the new planes come and go.
