A scan of a print of a slide. I am standing on the rear of the fuselage facing forward. The location was somewhere north west of Madang in PNG. The name is long forgotten. My best guess at ID is a Nakajima KI-49, with Allied code name 'Helen'. At this Japanese WWII airstrip a bit to the left of the photo there was a single engined plane 'parked' parallel with this one in a similar state of abandonment and decay. 1983. PS: Now I've found it was Alexishafen Airfield.
