Hi! Nev, I just spent a week looking in my 3 positions & I thought I'd be the last to say it, but I gave up! It will take something of a Miracle & good luck to find MDX after 28 years in dense bush & THICK Lantana.Thanks to the person who cut the log across the track! I searched around my no.2 position & couldn't see any thing, I then searched my no.1 position, it's a tree farm, got in there via back way from the Craven Trig & its not on the chart, but they bulldozed a road up & along the ridge & actually joins position no.2 & again couldn't see any thing. Had a drive past at no.3 position but didn't look, the Lantana across the creeks is thick & the hills are steep. If you want to look I recommend around the no.3 position(Glen Rd). There are locked gates & private properties in most other area's I wanted to look! As I said earlier, you would have a better chance with an imaging device that the military are trialing that makes the bush disappear to see what's underneath, from an aircraft! Good Luck!!

Ps. The Pilot didn't do himself any favors by not giving a bearing to something IE. Taree NDB or his direction(east?) as radar shows! or seeing lights etc. In the first place why didn't he back track off Taree NDB until he was 180 degree's off Maitland VOR & turn left!! The VOR doesn't swing as compass or NDB does!
