Inquiry finds Southern Cross crew not to blame for publicity stunt
The board of Inquiry into the forced landing of the Southern Cross and the Kookaburra found no justification for claims the crew staged the Glenelg River incident for publicity. It faulted the Southern Cross for lacking equipment and supplies for a long flight from Sydney to England. The report recommends significant changes to long-distance flight regulation. The deaths of pilot Keith Anderson and mechanic H S Filtercock were linked to an underprepared aircraft, deemed unavoidable given the flight's urgency. Bodies of Lieutenant Keith Anderson and Mr H S Hitchcock arrived in Adelaide with burial plans underway in Perth and Sydney. Funeral arrangements are pending.
