Was tasked one night to fly a consignment of frozen fish (salmon I think it was ) out to Fiji from ML. Talk about having to gut the plane, put plastic down everywhere & keep the cabin not above 4 deg's C !!!. That meant we too had to be exposed to that lovely temp !!! & for around 4 hrs !!!.............talk about yr 'cold soak' ! Try flying with 2 pairs of socks, blankets over you as tho you where oldies in a retirement home !

On the return journey (M/T obviously) had the cabin roasting....ahhhhh toasty !

Had the Soggies one night also, talk about hut hut hut hut !, can almost classify them as breathing dangerous cargo ! Great bunch of chaps tho, dangerously fit they where & obliging to show me there nasty weapons for 'breaches' !.
