Alan Lord?

After the whereabouts of Alan Lord.

The bulk of aviators (as well as acquaintances in Air Services) out there he owes money to would be very keen to catch up!!
Last heard of flying night freight ex Adelaide.

Alan Lord last seen leaving Airlink (Lae base) in PNG to start an exciting new career as a CASA FOI in Cairns or perhaps Townsville. This was in early 2001.

Lyndon Wigmore was made redundant from Qantaslink - Impulse back in August (when QF retired the B1900Ds - he was a Captain). I last saw him with a nice bottle of red and a vindaloo at an Indian restaurant in Brisbane, a month or two ago. I think he might have given away flying for the moment and is focussing on importing/ exporting.

Does he have a brother, Rowan?

I knew Rowan Wigmore, ex RAAF ATC then GA flying. He had a brother who was also a pilot. Wonder if it's the same? Where is Rowan now, I wonder?

Lyndon talked about his brother who was an ATC quite a bit, so I'd assume that they're one and the same.

Not too sure what Rowan is doing now.

Any one in contact with Wiggy please say "g'day" from me.

Curious as to what Pete Clements is up to. (former RAAF pilot, then Packer pilot, finally Murdoch pilot)
