I was once soundly reprimanded and berated in the Club Dero by a person previously mentioned in these pages (MF) for even thinking of describing that company in such a manner!

I was thinking with coffee prices what they are today the loads we carried in the Porter way back when would be worth $10000 a pop !

And the real big men wannim 44 belong im benzine bilong balus.
And there aint to many of them about these days either. I had to use petrol from the boat bowser to get from Daru to Kerema once. Then I picked up half a drum that Talair had left behind. used a sample bucket from the refueler to decant it from the drum into the aircraft.
Almost the same as home but cost planty Kina.
