| My departure was from R/way 09. After take-off I found it was | ||||
| necessary to carry out one climbing orbit for the DC-3 to gain | ||||
| enough altitude to clear the first mountain ridge along the | ||||
| flight planned track. | ||||
| For non pressurised aircraft additional oxygen must be carried | ||||
| on this sector for passengers and crew. | ||||

| A visual descent into Mount Hagen is reccommended | ||||
| If this is not possible due weather the descent is to be | ||||
| carried out whilst cirling the NDB navaid. Keep it tight for terrain | ||||
| clearance | ||||
| I was alotted R/way 30 by ATC for my arrival with a left hand | ||||
| pattern entry. You will note the mountain ridge on short finals | ||||
| I found if this was crossed at an altitude of 300 ft AGL | ||||
| the DC-3 was able to stop well within the runway length | ||||
| ARRIVE | MOUNT HAGEN AYMH | |||
