Guest extralite Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 There is a search on off the beach in front of my place which is about 15km north of Byron after a witness reported a yellow aircraft with "Fire 25" on the side tough the ocean (witness saw wheels touch but doesnt know what happened then. We had a false alarm about 3 weeks ago for a powered paraglider that went into the ocean (it didn't) as it is easy to confuse the angles. But is there such an aircraft that would have that written on the side? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest extralite Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 Yeah South Golden Beach which is about 5km south of Pottsville. When i left the beach at sunset, there were still 2 search choppers and police searching up and down the beach. Strange that they called okay. Anyway sure the mystery will sort itself out.
