It's An Upside
Our correspondent in Hollandia, NNG, calls this a “little crash”.
And, no one seems unduly put out about it, including the local gentry on the right. If these crazy Europeans want to land their planes with the wheels turned up, they say, well, it’s just about what you’d expect.
The place is the Central Highlands of Netherlands New Guinea, the plane a Cessna 180, and the people who own it, the Missionary Aviation Fellowship, which supplies the air transport for a number of American and one Australian Mission operating in NNG.
