The TAF's for any destination south of & including Albury required instrument approaches & alternates yet a VFR C182 sets course for MNG...............WTF?
Pilot reported as a great bloke and someone who put the community first and a veteran CFA member.

Since he was was delivering parts for a helicopter on a fire ground perhaps his public spirit clouded his judgement...

The thing is, he was on his way back, not to the Heli's.

If he'd waited until the afternoon, There may well have been a different outcome.
