Huey at Parakylia
This is a very poor old photo dating from 1977. It shows my Iroquois on the ground at Parakylia station, after a main transmission problem. Stranded in a remote area north of Woomera, South Australia wasn't as bad as it could have been. It was though, a logisitic nightmare for the RAAF to get the new transmission to us. It was flown by Caribou from Canberra to Woomera, then external loaded by a 9 Sqn Huey out to us, and finally fitted by a Fitters APC.
