Comments
Fly off operations continued until 1930LT yesterday at which time we had flown off 32 passengers and about forty percent of the cargo. Overnight proceeded to a position 11 nm from Casey and at first light progressed a further 6 miles and are currently 5nm miles from the station. Flying operations commenced at 0830LT and are currently underway and we expect this to be completed later today. It is planned to depart the Casey area for Davis later this evening.
