A dollarbird?

Hello,
I am a new member and would like a little help in identifying a bird I saw
recently.
It was not in Canberra though but adjacent to our bush block south of Araluen
and in the Deua NP.
The bird was in flight so I only saw it for a short period of time.
It looked a little like a Chough but was slightly smaller. It was nearly all
black with white wingtips (about 3cm). There was no black edging on the
wingtips however as in the Chough.
It appeared to have a short red beak.
I have searched a lot of references but cannot find anything that looks like it.
thanks for any help.
