Story about the 1937 Airlines of Australia Stinson crash at Lamington, Queensland, Australia and the rescue of its survivors by local Queenslander Bernard O'Reilly.
Stinson Model A
Reg. VK-UHH christened Brisbane. This replica of the Stinson Model A is now displayed outside O'Reilly's Rainforest Retreat, Lamington National Park (2017).
The cockpit action is unable to show the instrument panel behind the steering wheel (more preciely : the panel has no instrument ... and the gas throttle are not at the right place). This replica seems non flyable and the arial shot are probably done with a radio/command model.
