In 1962, Jim Knight decided to fly his newly acquired WW2 Australian-made Wackett aircraft from Melbourne, Victoria, across outback Australia to Perth, Western Australia. He made it as far as Ceduna, South Australia, then disappeared. After one of the largest aerial searches in Australia's history, nothing was seen of him. Three years later, his aircraft was accidently spotted way, way off track from where he was heading. This Part 1 video covers his trip from Melbourne to Ceduna. Part 2 will cover the loss & the finding after Ceduna. Hope you find this interesting. Cheers.
