Yesterday marked me being in PNG now for six months. It has gone quickly, but has felt like a long time. This week I had my six month probation review with my manager, which went well. I also finally received my CASA exam result which I sat over six or seven weeks ago. I passed which is great! I can now try and start studying for another exam in December.
Continue to settle in to the new house and with the MAF ministry team. We are going out to a Lutheran church this evening about 20-30 mins outside of Mt Hagen.
At the moment out at the hanger we have had a lot of scheduled maintenance. Mainly one of our Twin Otters for a C check. It has been in the hanger for almost four weeks and have worked on it three out of those weeks. We have not been able to have all hands on deck, like normal during a C check. There has been a lot of work on it and have discovered a lot of defects that need rectifying, which is a good thing. It is a high maintenance aircraft, but it amazes me that this aircraft is forty years old and does the work it does.
