For you flight buffs here, a bit of bush flying in PNG:

It looks like a typical airstrip used by top dressing aircraft here. Top dressing aircraft are turboprop made here and a derived version is used internationally for sky diving. The Cresco II can deliver just under a ton of fertiliser and landing up hill turning under the loader, loading under the New Zealand developed loader, then taking off down hill typically turning around under 4 minutes.
Maybe something for ex-pilots that jumped off to become mariners and feel nostalgic in their old days?:
