Passenger arrivals at Inverell Airport, February 1965 / The Tribune

  Many years ago I was talking to a fellow passenger on a flight in the US and who had visited Australia in the 60's and was delighted at the opportunity to ask me about a riddle which had bemused him since his trip so long ago. He had checked in to a regional airport and the airline staff member didn't allow him on the plane saying "Sorry Ockka the Fokker's chocka" which means to any Australian "Sorry Mate the plane is full" I wonder what happened to all those many Fokker Friendship aircraft servicing regional Australia.
