On the same evening news was a 15 second piece on a NSW Air Ambulance King Air that REPORTEDLY dragged the dunlops on the breakwall at Coffs Harbour.
If my memory serves me correctly, the breakwall at Coffs is a reasonable distance from the aerodrome and any aircraft that is low enough to ripp the left main gear off is a much more significant story I would have thought !.
Sounds like its a standard media beatup - Anyone know the real story ? Have the RFDS taken over yet ?? - Noticed that the rego and perhaps some kind of logo on the tail was covered up !
