Two of these were lost in accidents the first VH-UMF Southern Cloud noted above and secondly VH-UNA Southern Sun in Malaya in November on the first direct mail flight between Australia and Britain. reply | | George, e-mail, 20.06.2012 23:38 Is this aircraft the model used by Sir Charles Kingsford-Smith? reply | | John Hancocks, e-mail, 15.05.2010 07:41 In 1931 it was one of these owned by Australian National Airways that vanished without trace (though relevant sightings just before the crash had been ignored-the ladies being deemed "hysterical") between Sydney and Melbourne. The remains weren't found until 1958, it had flown into an heavily timbered mountain side in dreadful weather-that developed after take off, the pilots having no warning. It carried no radio though this became mandatory for all passenger aircraft thereafter. reply |
