Interesting to see the Queenair hulk with the TNA logo on the tail. What's the story behind that a/c?

Never thought that 'The Frog' would have considered that type!

Here's a couple of recents. Sorry for the average quality. One in particular will be hard to spot.

Anyone know what the go with the Beech is, looks to be registered to an owner in Florida?

TKFS, Heavy rain in a Regional Pacific Braz? That strip has similarities to Nadzab but unless a LOT of houses have sprung up recently I don't think it is... The apron is also on the wrong side of the runway.

TNA Queenair - too easy... Hagan! The bedraggled TNA Islander at Tabubil which looks similar was for sale according to the locals. They knew where the missing engine was and tried to sell it to me once...!

Yeah, and even easier as we both used to be regulars to the Fraser Coast : Bandit sans engines = Maryborough. Don't think that 680 has flown for some time.

Even easier considering Jaba that you were there when I took atleast one of those photos!

The Beech is at Redcliffe. Based on the fresh oil on the bitumen one would think that it had only recently arrived, perhaps within a few days.

Here's one that I'd be surprised if either of you troublesome two could get.

Yes Whitemark it is (Flinders Island) and you're way further north than Jaba and J3, I'm impressed !

With a MSA of 17500 it must be PNG or similar.....where is Chuck or Tinpis when you need them?

XXX... did not notice you taking the pics. J3 is right, those old frames at MYB have been there a Looooong time. Can not be too good for them Lyc's sitting there. The Bandit I think should make the scrap bin, if only to tidy up the apron!

The first one is taken from a 207 but the second one is from a 172. Yep, I fly 207's but I don't think you know me...I'm pretty sure you know another girl I fly with though
