The curse of Mungerannie strikes again. That's the third such incident of that type in that area over the years. The first on was Mungerannie station owner Kevie Oldfield, back in about 1992 while checking stock tanks. Then in 1994 his cousin Grant Oldfield of Cowarie station was killed while aerial baiting. The thing that hit me hardest with Kevie's accident was the fact that I had to refuel the police airwing plane that was bringing his body back from the crash site. Not a nice feeling to know that the body of a very dear friend is separated from you by a thin piece of metal as you bend down to connect the earth lead to the nosewheel.
