They landed STOL on the grass parallel to the apron with full reverse and maximum braking, sending up rooster tails of grass clippings. Here they are casually finding a parking spot among the punters with not a hi-viz jacket or orange cone to be seen. Happy days! The sale to Sadia must have fallen through as it actually went to Pan Alaska Airways as N123PA and crashed due to fuel contamination on 22 October 1970.
