My then office had a passenger onboard the DC10.
TAA Burnie had booked the wife of the Port of Burnie Authority on the ill fated 3 holer. An anniversary present.
It was devastating for all of us, but not nearly as devestating as for the relatives.
I just find it hard to believe it has been 25 years, and what has gone in between.
Having read in depth the bad press the DC10 gained over the years, I was determined to fly on one before they were relegated to the wilds of Africa and South America. I am pleased to say I did, with Garuda.
If any aeroplane could have got them out of the corner management put them in, I am sure they were in the right one.
Solid, reliable and powerful.
Please, where have those 25 years gone?
God rest all the souls onboard.
Best all
