I took over from Dave Scanlon at Port Hedland in 1964 flying Cessna 205 VH RLN and Cessna205 VH KXK. I was the only charter aircraft based at PH at that time. The RFDS had a Baron there flown by Jim Smith. Are you still around Jim? I am almost 80 so you would be going on 90 by now. Jan Beers flew in sometimes in the Bell Bros Cessna182. Sometimes we met at Swindle Field out on the Canning Stock Route in the Great Sandy Desert. Wish we had GPS in those days!!
Bet you'd have some great stories!
