Is probably why there were rumors of his drinking problem. Never proved, in fact, just the opposite was found.
Joe is right about the longwire antenna being left behind. An even costlier one was that the lower (on the lower aft fuselage) directional antenna was knocked off on the takeoff roll from Lae. It showed in the pics of a flyby two legs earlier, but was missing in the photos from Lae.
Might have contributed to the inability to home the Coast Guard Cutter Itasca at Howland Island, her fuel stop.
Have heard nothing further, just the request for a charter.
