I am sure you PNG types already know, but if not, Frank "The Health Inspector" died recently of cancer. I attended his wake in Sept. He was famous for getting a few under his belt and then donning a white chemist coat and shutting down resturants by posing as a health inspector, complete with company ID card! A real character and a personal friend. We seem to be minus the wags these days. I also remember when he was locked up in the 'can' in Darwin, together with the Capt and FE after a very exciting night at the Casino back in the 727 days. A young lass complained about being bitten on the bottom from somebody under the dinner table!! The flight was delayed by 8 hours. Ah the good old days. Now its all powder blue instrument panels, sidesticks and Navbags on wheels.
