Southern Air Transport
Thanks Tmbstry
I just checked some dates and I was there just after Talair crashed one of their Bandits into a mountain , they had the mangled engines in the hangar at Goroka so I was there 1992.
Which reminds me of a little incident on my 3rd day in PNG , I was walking from Goroka airport to a nearby hotel when I passed this guy selling stone axes , I picked up one of the axes to examine it and the head fell straight off "You bugger up ! You bugger up !" he starts screaming and getting all excited and he gets 10 kina off me , to this day I still cant figure out if it was a set up , he watched the head fall out in slow motion with me.
Amazingly beautiful country but I always felt that trouble was real easy to find with the locals , makes Indonesia look like kindergarten.
