VH-WWB (2)  Piper PA-30-160 Twin Comanche B                (c/n  30-1034)

                                 

                                        This Twin Comanche was first registered to Australian and American Development Co of Wee
                                        Waa, NSW in December 1968, hence the 'WW' rego.    This company promoted local cotton
                                        farming.  However, by the time the above shot, from the Geoff Goodall collection, was taken at
                                        Perth Airport in December 1970 the aircraft had passed to Perth charter operator Murchison
                                        Air Services.  The tail is emblazoned with Murchison's distinctive red tail with Southern Cross stars.
                                        This Twin Comanche met a tragic end when it collided in mid-air with DH.104 Dove VH-WST
                                        near Bankstown Airport on 13 March 1974.
