Thanks for that info, RENURPP. Had forgotten about TZL. Was thinking that was the one crashed at DKI but maybe that was AQB.

I would love to have been able to get out and meet the crews in those days instead of being stuck at a console. Remember Hazelton lassooing the undercarriage of a C310 down from the back of a ute at Cudal or Orange? Legendary!

Was on in the wee small hours of the morning when MWK had twin engine failure in tiger country near Goulburn. Interesting story attached to that one. Pilot went on to Qantas; you around these parts Steve?

*eyes mist over at my youthful enthusiasm in those days*
