    A few containers of samples donated to the tribal chief. Bundled the reporters back onboard except for one who decided to stay and exchange recipes with the tribal cook.

    Off quickly to WA1A Sorong

    Long-ish leg over shark-infested waters but safely down at Sorong.

    Once again the pax were out in a flash taking pictures of the area.
    Seems like there are a lot of broken aircraft bits tossed in the trees...

    So Long Sorong

    Extremely long time on the ground. Apparently the 'journalists' got into town and were interviewing some of the locals including a few young ladies who were very impressed with the "generosity" of previous race crews.. which led to an altercation with the ladies' friends, which.. well, the boys came back to the airport in a bit of a hurry and were glad that we could swivel the Martin top turret around to face the road...

    So long Sorong - we are off to WABB

    On the ground at WABB.

    Looks like a nice spot for dinner. Maybe the magazine boys will think to have showers too...

    Well, the 'walking cargo' was none too happy. Bit of a rough ride and all they could see on approach was jungle but they are off-loaded safely for another party with the locals. (Hope these aren't the sort to take cranial souvenirs...)

    Arrived at Gusap (GSP)

    Always liked that B-26 in FS9. Didn't know it was tweaked for FSX. Have to look it up. I have the B-26 by "Radioman" for FSX. Not a bad ride.
