Animal. It was "Brian". "Bryan" was of the Grey variety. The aircraft was DHC-6-200 VH-GKR - I forget the Ser No, maybe 086? - and the year was 1972. It was the first Twotter and TAL's first turbine aircraft.

Brian with cabin attendant Betty, ferried it to Goroka. We gave Junior a model of that aircraft at the Talair 30th bash in 1982 or 1983. Last seen in his office at Flight West in 1999.

Bozzo. There is a Talair Reunion web site with zillions of names, some best forgotten! PM to remind me and I'll dig out the web site address at work.

I think barryhoc also also has a list of names from the TAA (and possibly AAPNG) era.

Sharpie posts here and can possibly give you ex Pixie staff contact details.

Hanoi also seems to have a finger on the pulse of ex PNG aviation staff.
