Cool

Yup, definately Marawaka and Omkali. Omkali, closed maybe 20 years, was 12 percent, steepest strip in PNG.

I seem to remember someone trying to do a go around at Omkali and coming to grief. Maybe a C207 - can't remember the details now? Would have been early 70's, around the time of your adventure, Vege?
