Avgas 172. After Andrew 'passed' Richmond I understand he asked BK if he was closer to Richmond or BK. The reply was "SYD Radar advise you are now closer to BK.". It would appear Andrew was then committed to BK. When it became obvious he could not make it to BK it appears he was attempting to land on the sports oval close to the impact point. If the a/c had not struck the power pole the outcome may have been different.
