Good on your Captain Wally, I knew you would be good for a few stories on YMEN.
What was the name of Russ Pascoes flying school? Always have a chuckle when another operator refererred to him as Puss Rascoe. If you out there Russ in ppruneland, thanks for that advice many years ago at least you gave me an honest opinion and saved me a lot of dollars! Did Russ fly the Argosies for Ipec?
A mutual friends dad and grandfather worked at Air Express as casual loaders for some extra cash in the 70's, loading the Bristol Freighters and later the DC-4's for the nightly runs to Launceston and King Island. Muttered something about Essendon being a cold wet place on a winters night.
Remember the fixed wing section of the Police Air Wing?
