There was a time when it was known as "RWY CENTRE"
OS!
So now yer tellin me that you usta work here... somewhere in a previous life? We need to to talk about that over a Tiger or two some day!
I've never landed on the Marsden at Moresby but have had the, errrm, pleasure
of the Marsden at Kikori on many occasions. One such occasion that sticks in my mind was when I made a last minute decision to land 12 rather than 30. This action, as it later transpired, prevented a rather serious accident - had I landed RWY 30, my wheels would've been caught by a chunk of matting that had ridden up over another chunk, making a very sharp protruding edge that would really have ruined my day - and my aircraft!
I've always reckoned the stuff was a bloody poor excuse for a runway surface!
