Aerial View of Paga Hill, Port Moresby and Fairfax Harbor
In the background is Tatana Island. The hill to the left is Paga
Hill. To the right are moored PBY Catalina and a Short Suderland flyingboats
at the Fairfax Harbor Flying Boat Base. In the middle of the photo
is a pipe line extending from Hanabada Point, far out into the harbor
for aviation fuel for 5 Mile and 7 Mile. Several transports are in the
harbor, as well as smaller native sailing boats. Many piramid style
tents are visible along the beach area.
