Not just two. Bell Brothers' Cessna 411 (VH-BBV) near Meekatharra WA around 1968. Prop sheared off, and then came back and punctured the fuselage in several places. It missed the pilot's head by a few inches. DCA (as they then were) subsequently mounted a huge, and unsuccessful, search for the prop. I thought Griffo would have mentioned this one.

I'm with everyone else - I think the Rex crew did a great job here.
