With Regards Fraser,

About 5 years ago I was told that National Parks had only authorised 2 Operators to land on Fraser beaches/non airstrip area. They were the helicopter mob and of course Air Fraser. Furthermore, both operators used to police this ruling fairly fiercly and dob people in for landing without permission.

Then there was the Archer from Illawarra that had the engine failure and after conducting a forced landing, bouncing and leaving the left main on the beach, the engine magically started working again...
