Ansett 146 clash
can someone please identify the a/c regs involved and the amount of damage?
Melbourne TV News Tuesday 030902 showed the Ansett B.Ae.146's stored at Melbourne [Essendon] Aerodrome blown into each other during Monday night's windstorm.

Sensible Garage,
Feel free to read a report and see a few photos here .

Of the aircraft, five were damaged. The two undamaged aircraft, ZK-NZG and ZK-NZK are now parked on the southern side of the airport. The remaining five, ZK-NZH, ZK-NZI, ZK-NZJ, ZK-NZM and ZK-NZN, have now been separated and remain in the same parking area as previously.
I think the administrators are hoping for another big blow and praying that next time the planes are thoroughly r**ted so they can claim for hull loss on insurance.
Apparently insured values are way in excess of what 146s fetch on the open market.
