Re: PNG Ples Bilong Tok Tok

I recall a story about Len reporting that he departed Nomad in near o/o weather for Kiunga in his Stol 185. Climbed up a few thousand, read his Phantom comic along the way, let down where he thought Kiunga should be until the clouds turned green, carried out his missed approach procedure and returned to Nomad. Let down again until the clouds turned green, slowed down with a few notches of flap, broke out around 2-300 feet, Nomad straight ahead, full flap and landed.
