THE VITAL CLUES
So many Australians travel to Bali each year that it’s easy to think it is actually a part of Australia, and therefore easy to forget that when things go wrong on the island, they can go really wrong. Last May, 23-year-old Queenslander Byron Haddow thought two weeks of partying in Bali would not only be the perfect holiday, it would be perfectly safe.
But four days after arriving, something terrible happened at the villa where he was staying, and Byron died. Despite three other Australians being with him at the time, local police haven’t been able to determine the exact circumstances of what happened, or even Byron’s exact cause of death.
On 60 MINUTES, Adam Hegarty investigates vital new evidence which could piece together the last moments of this young man’s life.

THE MENACE OF THE TAIPANS
When an Australian army MRH-90 Taipan helicopter crashed off the North Queensland coast during a training exercise in July 2023, four young airmen were killed. It was the worst peacetime military incident in decades.
Two and a half years on, the families of Captain Dann Lyon, Lieutenant Max Nugent, Corporal Alex Naggs and Warrant Officer Phillip Laycock have united to speak publicly for the first time. And their message could not be clearer. They want Australia to know this was a disaster that never should have happened. They say a litany of errors by the Defence Department, along with a culture that consistently put risk before safety, is to blame for the crash.
On assignment for 60 MINUTES, Nine’s national affairs editor Andrew Probyn reports there is also substantial expert evidence to back up the very serious claims being made by the families.
