I've written various types of aviation support software on and off since the early 1980s.

One of my favourite planes were the Grumman Mallards still owned and operated by Paspaley Pearling out of Mungalalu Truscott and other Kimberley airbases.

They're classic 1950s twin-engined amphibious aircraft that landed anywhere up and down the Kimberley Coast for pearling transfers.
