On landing he has to deal with an argument on the runway between local tribes people.Captain Danie Malan is put to the test as he tries to graduate to the trickiest mountain strips in Indonesia. While Captain Robin Rudderham is also looking to make the move up and experiences the threats that come with flying the busiest route in Papua - the super highway.With planes flying dangerously close to one another and often no radar to warn them of their position pilots here have to remain on red alert for the threat of a mid-air collision.
