Pete Winston Brown spent seventeen years of his life in Papua New Guinea, where he worked as a commercial pilot and a flight instructor. Pete now resides in Atherton, on the tablelands above Cairns. On a second trip to New Guinea, he instructed, then progressed into third level airlines, and became a senior pilot. A colleague, knowing his business background, suggested they form their own airline utilizing the Australian Government Aircraft Factory’s Nomad aircraft. With wife Cecilia able to take out Papua New Guinea citizenship, they formed the first one hundred percent PNG owned airline. This created jealousy and rage amongst the existing operators and every trick in the book was tried to bring about the company’s downfall. In three years, they expanded from one aircraft to five, until Pete was assaulted at 4:00 am on the 23rd July 1979 at his home in Mount Hagen. Pete barely survived, but masterful medical help enabled his complete recovery from extensive brain damage, which created news headlines. He appreciates the rich social environment of New Guinea where, in spite of the primitive aspect, communities resemble country Australia with people caring and helping one another. With his years of business experience serving the public, he is capable and confident communicating with all levels of society. Personally, he has led a very active sporting life, but now likes to train each day at home to maintain a level of fitness appropriate for his age. As his personal knowledge of Papua New Guinea is extensive, he is confident of his ability to produce many, marketable books. His first book titled “PLES BALUS.”
