Mmm ...

It appears aircraft registered as VH-WOA seem to have a fair bit of bad luck!

Thanks for the reply

I had the pleasure of flying WOA from BN to SYD, it was very nice I thought, heavy of course with all the extras in it, surprised to see it end up spraying. It was for sale for a long time, I think it had big overhaul costs coming up. Looks like wire, strike again.

Loss of Power?

A database I referenced suggested that it was a loss of power that led to its demise, near Daegu, South Korea, on 21 July 2012.
