Yes, function aspline() of package akima is well suited for such things: 
no wiggles like in spline() and less variance reducing than approx(). 
But in any case: excessive interpolation will definitely lead to biased 
results, in particular artificial autocorrelations.

If ever possible, David should look for methods, capable of dealing with 
missing data directly.
