Have to agree with Sunfish...not to mention the air ambulance that went in approaching Mt Gambier a few years back.
Fact is IFR,VFR, commercial or private, they will all crash in bad weather with lack of care or the rules not being followed.
There is nothing wrong with NVFR providing it is just that..night V F R.
And I would guess there is not one among us that has not got caught out or pushed the boundries at some time or other. This latest accident unfortunatley comes as a timely reminder.
