PNG pilot

I guess many of the old PNG pilots have stories to tell....like the time I was landing at Kiunga in a c150 from the left seat when the control column split pin came out, and so did the control column...landed it from the left seat with the right hand control...case of need a beer quick!!Also flying Stol C336 and had a complete electrical failure....Daru was just being built as a staging strip, and had to land there no flaps, no pitch control....in fact bugger all except good luck, because at that stage Daru was a short dirt strip.Many more similar stories...like to hear someone elses though.
