VISIT TO INDONESIA by CANON TE HIHI KAA, B.A., L.Th. KO TE HAERE KI INDONESIA No te 12 o Aperira, 1960, he turei te ra, ka rere maua ko toku hoa wahine ma runga aropereina mai i Nepia ki Akarana. I konei ka okioki, ka moe maua i te kainga o nga whanaunga. I tetahi rangi ake, i te hawhe paahi o te iwa ka rere ano maua; engari ma runga i te Aropereina o te Kamupene Rererangi o Poihakena (Teal), mau ana mai te wehi i tona nui me tona ataahua, i tona horo hoki ki te rere.

Before we realised it, we were already in Sydney, the distance from Auckland to Sydney being within the vicinity of 1200 miles; it was just a minor effort to the Teal plane, we landed in Sydney about 1.30 p.m. (11.30 a.m. Australian time); flying time was only four hours. It was not until the next evening at 6.30 when we took off again by an All India plane; the whole crew including the Chief Pilot consisted of Indians.
