Hi,
My name is Natalie and I post this with hope that somebody in this forum can tell me more about an accident that happened in Papua New Guinea in November 1968. The Austrian Pilot involved in this accident was Richard Komarek - also listed in another thread:
Merged: APNG Twin Otter Missing [Archive] - PPRuNe Forums who was the uncle of my boyfriend and about whom we love to find out more, as we can't get him and his story out of our heads. So far we found out via an article in the Sydney Sunday Morning Herald dated 20th November 1968 that he went missing on a supply flight from Vanimo to Imonda patrol post with his Cessna 206 flying for Aerial tours. The flight must have taken place around the 11th November as the article says that they have been searching for him for 8 days.
Is there anyone that knew Richard and/or can tell us more about this accident?
Looking forward to receiving any hint or detail. Thank you in advance and greetings from Austria
