VH-AVO crashed into Mt Willoughby, South Australia, on November 14, 1974. When Sydney airport absorbed the former Ascot racecourse after World War II, it surrounded a pocket of suburban housing. Over the next quarter of a century the houses were slowly demolished as needed for the airport. The ones in the background of this picture were the last.

VH-AVS was one of several Aerostars used to deliver documents from Sydney to rural bank branches. The ability to safely remove satchels from the baggage locker of an Aerostar without shutting down the engines was an advantage in the quick turnarounds needed. In the late afternoon the aircraft retraced their route collecting the day's business papers.
