When he returned last time, must be 12+ yrs ago, he went down to DCA office and had them take BN2
OFF his licence...this of course terribly coonfused the fella behind the desk...but with his palm liberally greased (a 'Somare' I believe) he duly complied.
Pinky certainly some were very lovely, and lots of fun
, but the cutest were pretty thick. The same FA who lept up to see if the strobe really was flashing out her eyes also bolted into the cockpit of my Bandit one day ex Rabaul-Buka seconds after I had roared past one of the young fellas in a BN2 a wing span or so away and breathlessly said "Chuck...how did he do that?"
"Do what?"
"How did he make the Islander fly backwards?"
