🏃 Total Mileage: 9.7 km

The story behind the small plane wreck :
According to the Aviation Safety Network, the privately owned aircraft, a Piper PA-23 Aztec, crashed in 1975 after leaving St Croix's Alexander Hamilton Airport with two occupants, en route to Piarco International Airport.
The report says while approaching Trinidad the weather deteriorated and the pilot was unable to contact the Piarco Control Tower to change his flight plan to instrument flight rules. He reduced his height to gain visibility, but shortly afterwards a steep forested mountain appeared directly ahead which he was unable to avoid.
Both pilot and passenger escaped with minor injuries, the report said.
