Great post. You obviously knew the old Air Nauru well.
The ex-Kittyhawk chap (PL) was near and dear to myself and I was so sorry to see how his time at Air Nauru ended. I really think it left him shattered.
I have no idea how they managed to get the old F28 as far as HKG and Kagoshima but they did and they never splashed one.
