Brennan, David Sadly, recent research has established that David Brennan was killed in the crash of Piaggio 166 VH-GOC, on 22nd February 1977. David had departed Bankstown for Warracknabeal, Vic at 0715 with a load of day-old chickens. Thirty minutes later he reported that he was diverting to Camden because of bad weather. The wreckage of the aircraft was later discovered on a ridge in high country 20km NNE of Marulan, NSW. Subsequently, a death notice appeared in "The Sydney Morning Herald" for David Brendan Brennan A.F.C. (ex Flt Lt RAAF) married with four daughters and residing at 40 Edward St, Baulkham Hills.
