No, I think you are speaking of a picture taken of a real accident in
which a Cherokee crashed into a tree near the airport in marginal

suffered some injuries as I recall.
I think this is it.http://www.snopes.com/photos/airplane/flightschool.asp
There are various versions out there, some are doctored.

BTW: Despite what Shopes says, even this picture is slightly doctored.
The "Learn to Fly" sign actually faces the other way. The picture was
doctored to show the face of the sign rather than the back (to make it
more funny). If you look at the second picture facing the other
direction you can see that now the sign faces the other way.
