The only photograph from the ominous 11th September of 1946, when the Douglas DC-3/C-47A-80-DL (OK, cn 19535, sn 43-15069) of the Czechoslovak Airlines needed to perform an emergency landing at 1746. Captain Irving took off at 1205 from Amsterdam and there were 13 passengers and 5 crew on board. At 1546, the plane flew over the radar at the Praha Ruzyně airport and flew a hold above the clouds at 1700 metres. At 1625, in very inclement weather, the aircraft started to descend. After four unsuccesfull attempts at landing, the aircraft kept flying a hold around the airport. At the same time, a PanAm Lockheed Constellation with full fuel tanks was attempting to land so captain Irving's DC-3 had to keep waiting. The PanAm's Constellation decided to continue to Brussels. The DC-3, after running out of fuel, had to land at a field near Dobrovíz. Captain Irving and the wireless operator Šulc were injured but there were no casualties.
