All I recall of Papua Papua is the heat, the mountains and the tropical vegetation. And a couple of old DC-3 aircraft on the tarmac.

I went to air shows at Ohakea when I was a kid. My mother was in the bathroom when an F101 Voodoo broke the sound barrier over the airfield - and all the windows in the bathroom, funny, for us.
PNG in January is in the North West Monsoon - humidity you can cut with a knife. I was there in'76
