That's the one in the ERSA and I presume it's the one he can't get through on?

Heard it's gone down near the Bald Hills Wind Farm at Tarwin Lower. 72 year old pilot taken to Dandenong Hospital, not known about other pax.

Anyone got details?

Thanks Red750 Yes very strange, once logged into the portal I seem to have access to other people's profiles and can view there licences and endorsements. This is very concerning and hopefully casa can fix it up.

I am still unsure (10 years later) if they actually shot at them or threatened to, I think the CFI may have dressed the story up :)

I remember when I started a new Job checking out powerlines there was a big red circle on the map and I asked is that military? Chief pilot goes, nope someone shot at us when we flew low over them while they were herding cattle.

Further to that maybe email James Linke at [email protected]

Give Blue Toungue a call they should be able to help 0407 626 356

Your addiction is starting to show Doc :) Good luck with it all mate, it is very addictive as you have already found out. Learning to fly is great fun and is one of the best parts of your flying career.

ULTRA light plane has crashed in Gippsland this afternoon. Emergency services were called Newry, near Maffra, about 12.45pm. The plane has come down over power lines. Ambulance Victoria is waiting to assess the pilot at the scene. http://www.heraldsun.com.au/news/victoria/light-plane-crashes-in-newry-near-maffra-gippsland/news-story/86787418d26fa01ee8d45db7a5005e76 Robbo Edit: My understanding is the pilot has a spinal injury and he is being loaded onto the ambulance chopper at the moment bound for the Alfred

I have just been advised a plane has gone down in the vicinity of 366 Upper Maffra Road Newry. The 45 year old pilot has landed in the paddock of a veggie farm and is believed to be ok but with some sort of head injury, it is believed he has clipped powerlines during the "forced" landing. No details on the aircraft at this stage.

The ATSB is investigating a ground handling event involving a Malaysia Airlines Airbus A330. On 31 March 2016, at about 0100 Eastern Daylight-saving Time1, an Airbus A330, registered 9M-MTB and operated by Malaysia Airlines, was being prepared for departure at Melbourne Airport, Victoria. During passenger boarding, the aircraft rolled rearwards from the gate about 2-3 m. The aerobridge and the aircraft’s forward left door were damaged. There were no reported injuries. http://atsb.gov.au/publications/investigation_reports/2016/aair/ao-2016-028/

They have done some work on VH-WLF also, photos and videos on there facebook https://www.facebook.com/hazairptyltd/

As I thought, from Stephen Death's hangar.

I think this would be one of Stephen Death's toys.

This plane looks out of place
