VH-AVJ   Piper PA-23-250 Aztec B                           (c/n   27-2004)

                            

                                Another of the 'previously owned' Aztecs imported for the Avis Rent-a-Plane fleet, this one was
                                formerly N104KC (built as N5004Y).     It joined Avis in September 1966 and the above photo-
                                graph was taken at Mascot by David Carter soon after.    -AVJ crashed at Wongraby Station
                                near Ogmore, Queensland, on October 6, 1969.       The Aztec was seen performing low-level
                                aerobatics, a roll followed by a stalled turn from which it did not recover. The two men on board,
                                both pilots, were killed.
