Speaking of songs; I remember my Chief Pilot from my Dz days singing 'Six hours to go' to the tune of the old C&W song
'Six days on the road'
Ozmate; What's the chance of you contacting AY and asking him to supply the words? I told him ages ago that I'd like him to write them down for me. He sang the song at my wedding in PNG back in 1990 and when he reached the last verse with the words
"....if you crash it do it right
as you crawl from the wreckage set it alight,
and the boss will buy you a beer and tell you
that you're all right"
Dennis Douglas gave the thumbs up sign!!
It brought the house down!!!!!!
You only live twice. Once when
you're born. Once when
you've looked death in the face.
