Also watched the bush flying videos.....

It reminded me of the only time of my 52 years where I have really truly felt alive!!

Once again I have been reminded of what I left behind far far too early,and even though it was involuntary I, like Chuckles, feel a deep sense of loss.

Re the 'other' Kar Kar strip; There was another strip on Kar Kar and when Geoff Thiel was checking me out into the plantation strip in my final PNG days he got me to fly past the other strip concerned. Now too long ago but seem to remember that the piccy posted by Tinpis is indeed that strip.

Only remember Geoff saying that it was not suitable for other than 206s or BN2s and was rarely used.
