Sorry, I screwed up, the correct URL is

without the forward slash at the end

Is someone fibbing here? In the _Plane and Pilot_ article I referred to in
the thread, this particularly nasty airstrip (but "cake" for Waldo, Urb, and
Packie) is shown as having been carved from the jungle in Kalimantan,
Indonesia, which is a damn fur piece from South Africa.

Lar,

Looks a lot like where I learned to fly if you take that center bump
out. Can't see the rest of the strip, but looks about like 100ft
elevation difference; notice that is a a c-206/207/208 probably a six
with a belly pod for cargo. If I can figure out how to hook up the
scanner, I'll post some similar stuff with me flying. Granted that
one's a little worse... if I owned it I'd hire those guys at the top
to get the village to remove that center hump before some lawyer like
latchless gets killed on it. Pretty standard stuff in the third
world. Looks like he broke ground in about 500ft; he must be loaded
down with misprinted bibles or something.
