A bit of sad and maybe unknown history….in late December 1950 a RAAF Wirraway on a shark patrol in southern QLD crashed in to a crowded section of a beach killing 3 people and injuring many more – http://trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/28671506?searchTerm=wirraway%20air%20crash%20maroochydore&searchLimits= A film and memorial about the crash is in process in 2013 to be done.
