Thanks to all who have posted with the very best intentions. Many of us overseas are very interested in this for family and personal reasons. Esp some who are now with DHL in Belguim (ex-Airfreight). Good/honest info is hard to come by!

I thought the PP SRE/NDB only got us down to 1500ft (in the Blunty?)

ConvairNZ: Rgds to all and thanks very much from Frank. I know he is keen to hear more and saddened by this tragedy; I will pass any info on. PM me if you wish.

Have to ask YDFD....what do you mean "coasted on a bearing of 010 PP"...... to the NBD? 4.5Nm @ 240TAS is 1.1mins....thats an awful long 'coast'..........

I have to assume Les was intoxicated to make such an idiotic remark/assumption. Im sure he is staying low nowadays!

Rgds
