Many years ago when I arrived in Lae for my first job, I was given some words of wisdom that initially did not mean much but as time went by became more and more pertinent.
Those words of wisdom; Fly to your own limitations.
When I first heard them it did not really mean anything until one day I was following another aircraft into Pindiu. The weather was average and the other pilot got in. I thought well if he can, so can I. Wrong!
The other pilot had 3 years more experience operating out of Lae than I had. Sure I had been going to Pindiu for 3 months but this guys knew that valley like the back of his hand.
What I did scared me sh!tless, but taught me a valuable lesson. Fly to your limitations, not that of those with much more experience. If you do, you live to fly another day. Push on because he could do it and maybe you won't.
I may be wrong but the latest accident seems to match the scenario I have painted. Time will tell to see if I am correct.
