[edit] earlier comments

I think that seeing as this is an australian article, it should use the australian (british) spelling for JAIL (not GAOL).

but GAOL is British spelling for jail. I've seen Australian newspapers spell it GAOL. [1] [2]

• According to American and British English spelling differences (footnote), jail predominates in Australia. -- Moondyne 04:26, 4 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Helecopter or light plane? Bought or given?

http://news.ninemsn.com.au/article.aspx?id=60040 states differently to us. Rich Farmbrough 18:38, 9 September 2005 (UTC)

I must admit that my personal recollection of the news story was light plane, but a google search for "brian mickelberg helicopter" returns at least 6 credible news sources saying he died in a helicopter crash in 1986, and "brian mickelberg plane" returns a similar number, so I don't know what to do. -- Moondyne 10:12, 25 September 2005 (UTC)
