NCA pilot rampage
North Coast Aviations senior National pilot last week went on an alcohol fuelled rampage at the NCA compound in Lae, after a day on the turps. In a scene that lasted til the early hours of the morning, the lives of company expatriate pilots were threatened and property destroyed, resulting in flight operations being suspended the next morning as flight crew left town fearing for their lives. In a company already struggling to survive operational difficulties, this incident is sure to contribute to the companies demise.
