Cant find out much more , but it seems a NZ reg 737 flying for Toll crashed at Henderson field. No one believed to be dead.
Im sure someone else will come up the details.

QC left the country 18 months ago. She is alive and well in Canada and now sports a coral kit.

Good that no-one is hurt. I usually see a chubby little Toll 737 at YBBN, when I travel down to YSSY, but I have never seen it moving.
Mebbe it's a fly-by-night operation? laugh.gif

'Propliner' is actually short for 'Proper airliner, with big rumbly radials'
