B200 VH-KTE 1983 Accident
Anyone in Pprune land got a link to the full accident investigation, only seem to be able to get an abbreviated summary on the the ATSB website.
Pardon me not opening up those files just yet.
Does my memory serve me right that the cause of the fast descent (leading to the subsequent break up ) was not conclusively determined?

Holy crap!
At about 2144 hours a noise resembling thunder was heard. The night was clear and there was immediate speculation concerning the noise.
There's a lesson there, if you hear thunder, look up, it might be the wings falling off an aircraft.
Scary stuff!

Sorry KingRB, I didn't read your post before I posted mine - I pretty much said the same thing as you.
In regards to the birds though:
"The birds would not have been capable of forcing their way out of the cardboard carton
in which they were carried. They were either deliberately released from the carton during
flight or freed from the carton by other forces during the inflight breakup."

There was also a feature on an Australian TV series called "unexplained" ( or similar ) but Google isn't showing any results. I just remember the story and the TV presenter with that creepy husky voice.
