I'll try again later because I'd love to read the thread on there, and make contact with whoever started it. Thanks for the info on the Gibson Girl and its range by th...

Hi Colin, Thanks for your response. The evidence we have is that the aircraft crash landed on an island or ditched in the Banda/Timor sea next to one.
