Ditching 400 NM East of Tasmania
Flying around East Sale today and was listening to a request by Flight Service (124.0) enquiring as to the availability of one of the RAAF Kingairs that was around Merimbula at the time, to go Tasmania.
ATC advised them that a plane was either preparing to ditch, or ditching 400 NM east of Tasmania.
Anyone heard what happened?

If you heard Flight Service ... it must have been re-transmitted from Freddy's plane !!

freddy's plane would be the Fred Valentich C182 from around 28 years ago. It was either ditched or spirited away by aliens.
My spies tell me that the 182 has just been found recently (in Bass Strait) and there is a doco to be made of the events of that fateful night.
Scully, Mulder, where are you when we need you...

Night VFR for the inexperienced!!!
Over the years, I've seen a few books on UFO's which mention this event and it made interesting reading. These UFO researchers never contacted anyone involved with the search (at the site) and I suspect that they didn't because our analysis would not have been in line with the conclusion that they wanted.
