I bet he's popular with all the meri's with a gourd like that :ooh:

Did the pilot burn his DCs after the photo was taken?:D

They musta taken the lambies off the seats in case they tried to eat/hump them :rolleyes:

I may be mistaken, but don't think that control yoke blo Air Niugini F-100. A new recruit for Kiunga Aviation?????

Dispela balus em i Twin Otter tasol...dispela balus i no stap wuntaim Kiunga...maybe Moa Buggarup Airplanes..na tingim :ok:

Yeah - that bloke looks awefully familiar... Hang on! I saw him just the other day at Hagan - he stepped out of an MBA Otter but he had a pilot's uniform on this time :eek: Only kidding :ok: Love the pic :}

Chuckles; Nogat sem bilong yu??:= :D

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!:E

That's the Niu Bigman Pilit Bilong Tinpis Airways isn't he.? :E

This will bring on tears of nostalgia

The pilit crew room.

Bah that no challenge fer a Porter !
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 ! :hmm:
Much more than 15 fares :E

That's why all the meris can run so fast! ;)

DF.

Crewroom.?? Bloody looxory. You tell the yoof today and they don't believe you.! Mind you....people think this is a joke. It aint, is it Tinpis.? :=

I know that picture Tinnie - that's the kitchen at the Talair Kagamuga Terminal! :}

God I ate some great tucker there!

Helly put on lunch for the crew everyday we had a fantastic cookboy who was ex Papuan Hotel had run away home to his Enga mob.

The only solid food i ate while in Hagen unless there were nibbles at the Hagen Park:p

Observe the elegant Parquet flooring. That should scrub up well.!!

The trendies would kill for a wood fired "Benzine 44" stove these days :}

Keep 'em coming please, have read and enjoyed every page.

Surely someone must have some Christmas or New Years party stories from their PNG days?

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.
