Talair Baron P2-GKP
I noted an old reference to the loss of P2-GKP in a thread on this site. I was in PNG at the time and one of our people, a young female nutritionist, was lost with the pilot and four other passengers, including the regional health officer, Tom Gaunede. I went out on the search in an Islander and Baron P2-GKR - nothing was found. Does anyone have any information on the circumstances, real or rumoured?
I also noted Malcolm Hawkes and Brian O'Sullivan in the fatal loss listing, both of whom I knew. At one point I was going to join Talair and learn to fly while working in their Mt Hagen office. Perhaps it's just as well my plans changed.
Thanks for any feedback.
