  12. Happy Christmas and all the best for the New Year. I will have a quite moment on Christmas Day thinking of fellow aviators that have passed during the year, thinking of their family’s as well. (Miss you Sandra, Deb & Nicki) Maybe even raise a glass of wine (I won’t be flying) Fly Safe Regards RW
  13. Reports filtered through yesterday 8th of December that a Par Avion Islander was missing in Tasmania’s South West National Park on it’s way to Melaleuca with only the pilot on board. During the day search aircraft failed to find the Islander due to poor weather in the area. The Westpac Rescue helicopter had dropped 3 Police search crew & an Ambulance paramedic into the South West National Park area around 5.00pm.They have direction finding equipment to locate the beacon”. Sadly an early morning report from ABC Wreckage of missing plane found in Tasmania, pilot presumed dead WWW.ABC.NET.AU Search and rescue police say the plane's sole occupant, the pilot, could not have survived the crash. Thoughts are with the pilots family, friends, rescue personnel, Shannon & all at Par Avion RW
