VH-FOB was damaged beyond repair when it flipped inverted on take-off from Cockburn Sound, Western Australia on May 29, 1988. A combination of a missing screw and a broken bilge pump had flooded the rear fuselage. This photo is copyright © David Carter, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
