Heart moving and fond memories of a pioneer aviation entity that touched and served the people of Papua New Guinea to its core from the heart. To all those daring pilot friends who would arise at early dawn to race to see who would be the first to break the silence of the day, fly home at sunset, be recalled or diverted for a Medivac, I can only say, " tenk yu tru olgeta long hatwok bilong yu, yu givim long ol pipol bilong Papua New Guinea. To the many national and expatriate ground staff in various divisions of TALAIR, tenk yu tru ol Wantok na ol poro. For those who have lived their lives, tenk yu tru in silence. I served as ground staff and station manager in Lae, Mendi, Goroka, Popondetta, Rabaul, Madang, Gurney-Alotau, Wewak, Vanimo, Mount Hagen and to countless out station ports through out PNG. Tenk Yu Tru TALAIR, You were a True Servant Warrior and Pioneer Aviation Hero of Papua New Guinea. Marco O Paul (Served 1979 - 1984)
