US aircraft parts fall on Brazil

[oz_mark]

Sections of a US plane have fallen from the sky onto a residential area in the city of Manaus in northern Brazil.
Pieces from one of the turbines of the DC-10 aircraft caused damage to several houses and a car, but there were no reported injuries.

The flight, operated by the Miami-based Arrow Cargo company, had been en route to the Colombian capital, Bogota.

I remember back in 99 or 2000 that a NZ or a QF plane dropped parts on a warehouse in Auckland as well...

That looks like a fair amount of damage to the house. Thankfully these type of incidents don't happen more often.

An AA MD-88 i think also did it a few months ago.
