Thanks for that info on the OK-Tedi contract. It will make a useful addition to the history.
Yes, the good news is that the aeroplane has been preserved at the Queensland Air Museum at Caloundra having reached her quota of 25,000 hours. Full credit to Pearl Aviation for deciding that she deserved an honourable retirement. When donated to QAM, the aeroplane was substantially complete except for the engines and props. Pearl have since donated props and exhausts so she now looks complete.
