Liklik - There is a former Lae engineer, Dave Thollar, who has a large collection of colour slides of PNG DC-3s. Last I heard of Dave was 1995 when he was with Ansett in Brisbane. His photos appeared from time to time in 'Bird of Paradise' magazine and one with Sunbird DC-3s featured is in one of those published hardback bound sets - as is a piece about the late LL ('Low Level') Blackman. Larry was training captain for a wantok, Bill Hobday, who is now wheeling them on deftly somewhere way up there. RIP.
Tiger Maynard - Eric Sundstrup, after he and Mary sold Swan Island (NE tip of Tasmania), bought a property on the west bank of the Tamar.
Address is 364 West Tamar Highway, Riverside, TAS 7250. Phone 03-6327 1255
