Looks strange some how...with that tank so close...what may or may not be an engine...and the wing looks like a rode in the background. In fact the only thing that looks truely airplane is the two tone camo "nose cone". Could this be something else? Opinions?

Awesome, awesome pics either way! Thanks for posting them. A ton of good model subjects here!

its an American C-47, hit by flak returning from the Market-Garden drop, burns after crash-landing into a knocked-out German Jagdpanther in a field near Gheel in Belgium. 17 September 1944

Here are few from my picture archives. Not sure about exact sources, some are found on the net others scanned from various books.

I'm principally interested in pictures of aircraft with damage which managed to return to base or at least "friendly territory". While this forum is about WW 2 aircraft, I'm also interested in damaged aircraft from other conflicts, WW 1 -date.

A few more:

The photo that you are not sure of the aircraft. I'm just guessing here but it looks like a shot from Pearl Harbor after the attack because there a quite a few aircraft in that shot. It looks like they have bulldozed them into a pile.
