You're right, I didn't fly any of the Talair machines that had been crashed before I joined
RDL was an DHC6-300 when I flew it - forgot about the Bandit BBQ. What a good aeroplane the Bandit was for Talair - you'd struggle to fault Dennis' aircraft choices.
Checked my log book and the BN2 Simbu Aviation bought from Cecil Chee was CBE not NAM. No idea why NAM rang a bell - other than the good old days competing with Morobe Airways in the Monghe Valley when Paul Seeto and Mac Lee were flying it. More fun than should be legal - and some of it wasn't.
