Backloading continued throughout the day yesterday once a procedure had been established to clean containers and got underway again this morning and is continuing at time of sending report. Fuel pumping commenced at 1500LT yesterday after some problems were experienced with a section of the hose line and expected to be completed mid afternoon. The two CASA aircraft flew to Mawson and return yesterday transporting 14 passengers and personal effects to Mawson with limited cargo. Four passengers and cargo were returned from Mawson to Davis. Weather looked promising for a further flight earlier this morning but conditions changed rapidly and flying for today has been cancelled. The weather forecast for the next few days is not good for flying with the next weather window being possibly late Sunday or Monday REGARDS Richard and Jenny
