FNQ Yestayear Images - December 1992

Compass decorated VH-LNK with some festive colour for the Xmas holidays.

Meantime down in TSV, Operation Toga Coare (see last month) builds up withtwo more participants arriving during December in the form of the pair of NOAA's WP-3D's modified Orions, N42RF and N43RF.  They joined up with the NCAR Electra on a mission in the Coral and Solomon Sea's mid month, where GAFLICKS was lucky to catch all three on the ground at Honiara's Henderson Field mid month.  The NOAA P-3's also carry 'Dept of Commerce' endorsement on their roof.  Note mission symbol's on N43RF's rear fuselage and also flags of nations where they have operated.

As the operation gets up to speed, further participants will be posted in January's Yestayear.
