I know the FO (Tyers correct spelling) involved in the DC3 crash in Warnambool.

Previous night one engine was causing concern on the leg down.

Other engine failed on takeoff the next morning.

FO was heads down hand pumping the gear up when the captain shut down the wrong engine without going through any confirmation procedures at all.

Too late to restart, aircraft started to buffet. All happened very quickly.
