                                      East Indonesie's aircraft, (for whom he worked) probably in the early 1970s.       National Air
                                      Charter operated regular services from Jakarta and Singapore to Christmas Island back when it
                                      boasted a Casino*             NAC also, at one time,  operated Beech H18 tri-gears and even a
                                      Gulfstream I.   Anyway, PK-WWE was later sold to Deraya Air Taxi and was written off in a
                                      crash at Katapang, Indonesia on 8 October 1991.
