Remember doing a proving flight on Saab 340 a few years ago from Lihir to POM with the aircraft transiting to TSV. The 340 was loaded up with gold, crew dropped me off in POM, no security nothing, told the ground handler (PX) to turn the aircraft around immediately as it’s got some lollipops on board. In usual PNG style, time didn’t mean anything! Eventually got away without incident. It would have been a sitting target if the raskols knew that there was a few million worth of gold on board.
