Just over 800 hours in the flamin' things, all logged cruising about various parts of PNG.

Got me into and out of an assortment of goat tracks, ex WW11 strips and several 'Ohhh Sheeeeett' moments. Managed to get a 260hp version up to 17,000' once.

Carried SLF, the odd coffin (occupied), bags of coffee (the aroma was ), on one occasion some curiously smelling black rubbish bags of which I thought it would be very wise of me if I asked no questions, freshly slaughtered pigs and once a souvenired 50cal BMG, minus the action.

Wouldn't have missed the experiences for the world! Even if I am now half deaf!
