The airplane departed Charleville at 0530LT with a pilot, Ian Douglas Davidson, and two passengers, William Robertson Donaldson from Rockland, and A. W. Bell from Belmont. The plane must have had trouble on the road as it only reached Tambo at 0930LT (two hours late), flying very low over the river, with the engine running. On final approach, the engine stopped, and a second later, the plane hit tree top and crashed. Mr. Bell was dead and Mr. Davidson died within half-an-hour, while Mr. Donaldson expired at 2 o'clock. The plane was destroyed, the engine and fuselage being smashed to pieces.

The pilot A. Dix was performing a local training mission, practicing forced landing. In unknown circumstances, he lost control of the aircraft that crashed in Werribee, near Point Cook Airbase. The pilot was injured and the aircraft was damaged beyond repair.

While performing a training flight, pilot E. B. Ebell encountered poor weather conditions and elected to make an emergency landing when the aircraft crashed. The pilot was killed.

The crew was performing a training flight and was practicing emergency landings. At low altitude and low speed, the aircraft stalled and crashed in flames in Manor, near Werribee. Both pilots were killed and the aircraft was destroyed by impact forces and a post impact fire.

Aircraft was carrying a pilot and a photographer for a topographic mission over the Murrumbidgee River. Flying at an altitude of about 150 feet, the plane was about to land at Ainslie, near Canberra, when it nose-dived and crashed in flames to the ground. A farm-hand, named Walter Johnston, who was ploughing 50 yards away, saw the smash and rushed to the scene. By the time he arrived the aeroplane had burst into flame. After crashing, the plane burst into flames and Flying-Officer Pitt was burnt to death. Observer Callendar was terribly injured and died in the Canberra Hospital a few hours after the accident. With the pilot and the observer dead, the cause of the disaster probably will never be known. Onlookers who saw the smash say the machine, when about to make a landing, seemed to lose flying speed and nose-dived to the ground at a terrific rate.
