Tidbinbilla thank you for letting this run, we will continue to mention the sea plane. Julia Gillard has now announced a inquiry into the sinking of the "Sydney" which is amazing 60 odd years later. the Navy was renowned for inquiries even into the sinking of a row boat, so very interesting times ahead for all you history and navy buffs out there of which I am one. I "run" and fish with a pack of retired blokes which include three QF skippers, two TAA Skippers, one Air Commodore, and (I am boasting here) one Rear Admiral. As fisherman we are basically useless, as drinkers we are experts, as historians we love a good augument so this is keeping us of the streets, away from the missus, and not boring the kids.
