50 years on.
Yesterday, was 50th anniversary of the mid air collision between an Air Ambulance aircraft and a Helicopter on 19 October 1970 over the Moorabbin town hall or thereabouts. This was only 4 days after the Westgate bridge collapsed. The Beechcraft Twin Bonanza, VH RCN and Bell chopper, VH BLM were both inbound to Moorabbin in marginal VMC conditions. All on board were killed, 5 total, including the pilots, one of whom was a good friend of mine. RIP all.
