Paint: Daniel Gazzano

I repaint this aircraft as a tribute to the one that crashed on the Andes Mountains in 1972.
Also is intended as a tribute to the poeple who died in the accident, and to the incredible 
story of the suvivors!. 
This amazing story was described on the film "Alive!" directed by Frank Marshall and produced
by the Steven Spielberg team.

file named -Alive-.
