Plane crash and pig farm

My grandmother lived nearby at Kumeu at that time. She once told me about that crash and said the plane ended up in a pig farm and that the pigs started to eat the dead bodies. She said that was hushed up. She wasn't given to telling tales. 180.222.66.182 (talk) 06:05, 12 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
