I'd be interested to hear of any noteworthy accidents/incidents that have occured at SYD over the years - many of which may largely have been forgotten
What comes to mind for me:
Early 1960s - Ansett-ANA Viscount crash into Botany Bay
1969 - Pan Am 707 aborted take off and runway over run
1971 - TAA/CP air collision
1971 - Pan Am 747 over run (
