UPG DC-10

Terry : No real alternative at that time

Hasanuddin was one paved runway and an unpaved cross-runway.
I flew out of that one in a Merpati F-27 as late as about 1997.
Certainly nowhere to hide a DC-10

I seem to remember being told that this WAS reported in Australia at the time - 12 Jan 1981.

Is this matter worth putting on a different thread somewhere?
I still have some contacts and opportunity to follow up for details / confirmation.
