Lineboy my apologies. Here i was thinking you somehow were talking about a piston Porter and me thinking what sorta drugs they got in Irian Jaya these days cos as far as I know there arent any of those old bastard things left?
In the olden days early 70,s I used to do the odd trip in to Sentani in a 402 repatriating naughty boys that had crossed the border into PNG
There were several piston Porters there then and a few Helio Couriers (nice)
I flew both the Turbo Porters you refer to in PNG. They were, as the saying goes, as much fun as you can have with your clothes on up in those mountains
I hope you can find someone to show you the ropes because they got quite a repetoire, and when you get the hang of 'em, you will be in the handiest ride you can find in those conditions
Have fun
PS there used to be a bloody good Chinee cafe down near the waterfront in Sentani. They had the only cold beer in the joint them day, As the night wore on and the piss flowed, the place would mysteriously fill with young wimmen. I never did figure that out.
