On Friday there was a bit on Facebook via pilot Matt Hall’s page saying the original passenger could not make the flight to the fly-in so the empty seat was being offered, first come, first served, for, IIRC, $1,500 for 1.5 hours (I’m assuming this was for the entire flight from Caboolture to Evans Head) – considerably cheaper than the usual 20 minute flights offered for rides in VH-MFT.

I’m left wondering why this was newsworthy?
As a journalism student one aspect of news I was taught about was that “news” can be something different or unusual. This fits the bill nicely, although as others have said it would be nice to know why the ride was arranged.
For the uneducated among us: the MFT Phil refers to is the Mustang’s civil registration.

“I nearly bought one from a station in Queensland in 1979, but the sale fell through”
Now that’s a story waiting for a few questions.
