Looking for help: South Australian aviation website
 
Guys and gals, I'm looking for some help to find an interesting South Australian aviation website that I never bookmarked, and which I can't find again.

I seem to recall this websites name started with "A", as in something like "Amada Aviation".
It had a section devoted to historical aviation events, including the loss of the Wackett CA-6 in the desert country of NW of Ceduna in South Australia in 1962.

It also had a story about a Cessna 170, I'm sure it was, that crash-landed in the desert country of NW Western Australia around 1956 or 1957.
The story outlined how the wreck of the Cessna was recovered with an International 4WD truck, and taken back to QLD and rebuilt.

Any assistance in pointing me to this great website again would be appreciated.

Well, I've had a lucky hit, with a link on an RA website, and and found it again.

It was Adastra Aerial Surveys. I'd previously spent about 3 days unsuccessfully trying to find it.

Some good stories and history on that site. Thanks to anyone that might have unsuccessfully searched on my behalf.
