âBit of a squeezeâ
John Cameron, the barn-storming pilot who flew under the Harbour Bridge yesterday, also flew under the Gladesville Bridge, which has only an-80-foot clearance above the water. âIt was a bit of a squeeze. But it was just there ⦠a nice thing to fly under,â said Mr Cameron. His flight was to commemorate the death of one of Australiaâs pioneer pilots, Sid Marshall, who, in 1934, was the first man to fly between Papua New Guinea and Australia.
