The USAAF and the RAAF abandoned about 30 damaged and war-weary aircraft at Tadji at the end of World War II. They included Beauforts, P-39s, P-40s, an A-20 and this B-25 The best of them were recovered in 1974, with most going the US - three have since flown again - and a couple to Australia. 41-12442 was one of two retained in PNG and at the time of upload was displayed outside the nearby Aitape Secondary College. The remaining aircraft were bits and pieces that remained on the dump for many years until they too were cleared away. Photo by: Ken Broomhead

John Wren was a successful businessman from Melbourne, Australia. He invested in gold exploration in the Watut Valley, which was an area rich in gold. However, Wren's venture was not successful. The aerodrome would likely to have been the one cleared to support exploration and closed with the venture, G-AUHJ was operated by Airgold. It crashed at Bulolo, another hub of gold mining activity, on October 7, 1930 while still registered as G-AUHJ. Photo from: State Library of Victoria
