Infamous 'Death Flight' Plane Returns to Argentina for Historical Reckoning

A plane used by Argentina's military dictatorship to throw political detainees to their deaths from the sky has been returned to the country and will be added to the Museum of Memory. The Short SC.7 Skyvan is the first ever proven in a court to have been used in the "death flights," one of the dictatorship's most cold-blooded atrocities. The junta detained, tortured and killed people suspected of opposing the regime, with human rights groups estimating 30,000 were slain. The plane's return was enabled by Italian photographer Giancarlo Ceraudo, who spent years seeking out "death flight" planes.
