Aussie 451 declaring PAN

Post by Mikka »

Just heard 'Aussie 451' declare PAN on 133.9 due to number 1 engine failure. Currently tracking direct to Pearce. Bit of interesting listening for a Friday morning!

Something you dont hear every day. Does anyone know what aircraft that would have been?

Pretty sure "Aussie" is a generic RAAF callsign that gets used for international operations. http://members.optusnet.com.au/ventmond ... lsigns.htm

Was something with 2 engines, not sure exactly what though. Made it safely back to Pearce with services required when it landed. Last I heard they were in contact with Pearce approach at 5000ft.
