VH-PON in a rain-soaked Sydney Airport GA park. It was on the register from November 1966 to until August 29, 1981, when it crashed near Finke, Northern Territory. The pilot, who was not qualified to fly at night, had become lost and then had lost control resulting in the aircraft disintegrating in flight.
