Previous TAF Registrations. I flew a B737-300 with this registration at Australian Airlines and Qantas. Qantas B737-300. Australian Airlines B737-300. Trans Australian Airlines DC3. Trans Australian Airlines DC-4. This aircraft crashed near Brisbane Airport on 24 May 61. The accident occurred during the pre-landing circuit when the Captain tried to leave his seat under the influence of a disordered cardiac function and, in the course of so doing, collapsed across the engine control console in such a way as to bring all four thrust levers to the closed position depriving the first officer of the thrust lever movement necessary to avoid a crash-landing off the airport."
