Serious road accident reported. Location not well defined. On border somewhere between 3 regional ambulance control areas and three air ambulances and local police ASU.
Probably reported by many calls from bystanders, passers by, those involved, to any one of all three control rooms.
It's not happened before in this area , in my recollection.

On the Cobras we flew in Vietnam, we had seat belts attached so that we could take 2 people sitting on each ammo bay side door. We could take 4 people home in air-conditioned comfort that way.
A very simple rule is that you don't let rules stand in the way when combat needs dictate.
Here is a later model Cobra with the ammo bay door opened:

I had to lift in some concrete at Mt Hotham yesterday, for snow gun footings. The B3 Squirrel was fairly good at altitude (6000ft), and Big Mike took these shots along the way:

Prima facie evidence
Nice pictures, John.
There is nothing like having your picture taken when you flying with your doors in a “Prohibited” configuration (front RH door removed, rear right hand door fitted); or are the rules different in Oz?

There is an STC available for that configuration.
