The piston Porter, less engine, was swapped with Talair for a C206 overhauled engine. The spare Queenair engine was fitted but I think there were cooling problems? I seem to recall it did around 40 hours before the engine was removed and it sat on the strip in Goroka for a very long time. I don't recall exactly what eventually happened to it but I have a feeling it was sold, boxed up and shipped to Europe?

I'm sure one of the
lapuns will have more details.
