Arriving at Lord Howe Island by flying boat, 1974.
There were no aerobridges for flying boats! Arrival at Lord Howe Island by Sandringham involved going ashore in an open boat. Here the aircraft's Purser (they used nautical terminology), having tied the mooring line, watches from the front hatch as the passengers depart. The inset note shows the approach to the island, which is mainly National Park and has the world's most southerly fringing coral reef.

crashed the day before ... sadly killing all three on board ... we were
late to take off ... no one would tell us why ... until we returned from
our trip ... (gulp) would we have gone on it ... I think not ;-) oOo
but I'm here to tell the tale ..;-)
tiabunna club has replied to beverleybeverley has replied to tiabunna clubold either ;-) he was delightful and a gentleman indeed ~ another story ;-)))) and
we did not fly over the Tongas National Park area because of the crash ... tragic,
and I think this is not the norm ... well, I have not heard of anymore crashing,
and the trip was spectacular ... I guess in our lives each and every day ... we
face dangers ... on the road ;-) and think nothing of it .. ;-) oOo
