The bush surrounding the aiport contains thousands of rusted out 44gallon drums, presumably empty fuel drums left behind at the end of WWII.
The traffic through Jacky Jacky to New Guinea during the war was huge so it is not surprising their are some wrecks (many scattered further afield in Cape York).

The bottom two photos relate to a DC3 which crashed near the airfield with the loss of all on board. The wreckage is still largely intact and well preserved.
