The F27 with the gust locks was` Captain by Russ Strother. He put the tech log, in those day in an aluminum jacket behind the seat and inadvertently pushed in the gust lock around Parkes.
The sad part later was Russ's son also a captain with ANSW died of a brain anuism whilst playing sport - a terrible loss.
Air New South Wales, apart from being owned by Ansett and having the obligatory Ansett Management was a good company with excellent comradeship - unlike the companies today all with no soul.
