    Please don't quit Ryan - I love the current format. I don't fly any more but learned in Singapore in the 70's. Used to fly to short dirt strips in Malaysia in a 172. This takes me back to those exciting times. Admire your professionalism and safety awareness. Keep up the good work 😃

    30+ years ago, did a similar run - just out of High School, was only Pax on Company Swearingen Merlin - Cairns to Aropa (even less Traffic than POM) - Pilot puts me in RH seat. Get to Cruise altitude, sets autopilot, then tells me "That is our call sign - if you hear it, wake me...", and promptly leans against side of cockpit, and puts newspaper over his face to block the glare, and I presume, naps for 30 minutes. Heart was racing and eyes were everywhere...

    And also it’s a short drive to surfers paradise.
