Sir Ebia Olewale died quite suddenly, very recently. He was 69 and a good guy - I knew him well in my days in the Highlands.

Ebia Olewale was not in the Nomad prang in the Fly River - that was Rabbie Namaliu, Prime Minister 1988 to 1992, who got a broken leg. The Defense Force Nomad pilot was David Inai, the first PNG pilot to check out in a jet aircraft whilst training with the RAAF.

You're taxing my memory.......
