Quote from the article:
“On 28 June 2012 I wrote a blog piece about the
discovery of two Australian government files relating to the disappearance, in
1978, of pilot Frederick Valentich, over Bass
Strait , Australia
Last year, in September, while randomly checking the
National Archives of Australia’s RecordSearch database, I found a two part file
which also relates to the disappearance.
The new file is NAA file series B638, control symbol
M116/783/1047 parts 1 and part 2;
barcodes 10499635 and 10499636. Series B638 is comprised of 299 air
safety, accident and incident files, where M stands for Melbourne
I immediately requested that the files, whose status
was ‘Not yet examined’ be examined. On 18 December 2015, I was advised that both
parts of the file were now ‘open.’ I then submitted a request to have the file
digitised, and paid the relevant fee.
The file, when ‘open’ is titled ‘Accident on C182L -
Moorabbin Vic/King Island Tas - 21 October 1978. VH-DSJ [including multiple
newspaper cuttings regarding incident folder contains two piles.]’ ”
