Crashed at Taupo on June 5, 1977 when it entered a spin while downwind to land in what is believed to be an attempt to lose altitude. It came down in a residential area and skidded into the wall of a house. The pilot died of his injuries. Bob Kerr photo This photo was added on 11 February 2024, and has since been viewed 131 times. |
