I can say with almost 100 Patcent certainty that I refuelled that aircraft many times when it was based at Parafield in the early 90s. PITA if I recall rightly. Had six tanks all of which were very slow to fill.
FA Hornet (I think) just flew along Coolum Beach at about eye level from my balcony view... must be an awesome feeling to be in the driver’s seat of something lime that? Heard it coming way before it arrived.

I was in Port Pirie (or flying to) when this unfolded. While we were waiting for our patient the rescue helicopter left Adelaide (and the police PC12, and a media chopper). When we took-off there were a couple of police cars at Pt. Pirie airport waiting for the others to arrive. I don't know the full story, but pretty shocking stuff. What is wrong with society these days?

Not a big deal. An accident. Does the TV news cover every time someone parks their Porsche half way up a gutter?
