Crashed at Ure River on February 23, 1973. The aircraft had been used for agricultural work for several years when the right wing failed while topdressing. The investigation found extensive fatigue cracks. Photo from: Whites Aviation Collection/Alexander Turnbull Library This photo was added on 31 January 2022, and has since been viewed 282 times. |
