Don't want to start thread drift here
VictorGolf, but the Airtruk was developed from the Bennett Airtruck designed in New Zealand by Luigi Pellarini. Blame the Kiwis, not us Aussies, for the world's ugliest aircraft!
The Nomad was designed and built by the Australian Government Aircraft Factories (GAF) at Fishermens Bend, Melbourne and for a public service committee, tax payer funded effort, at least it had some flight capability!
I'll remind you that many of us Aussies with any General Aviation experience, view the BN Islander as Britain's revenge on the Empire!
Don't be so touchy! The Viscount did an excellent job in Australia but, for various reasons, did not have a good accident record.
