I know the owner of this aircraft and flew it many times while it was on the flight line at Schofields. It was a nice aircraft to fly, in good condition and well equipped, a real shame to loose it. Thankfully all on board made it out ok.
NRF was purchased from the USA in 2007 (ex N8181W), re-ssembled in Moorabbin and then ferried up to Bankstown. After Schofields it was on the flightline with BASAIR for a short while then finally with Sydney Aviators.
Here are two of the images from the USA when it was on the market.
