Creative loading

I hear pilot Michael Duncalfe say, 'Want to see some interesting and creative loading?'

'We hope the door will be big enough!'


This is a 'walk about Saw mill' going to Eliptamin which is near Telefomin (where we fly often).

You put it over the top of the log and track the cutter ( motor and saw) along the log  - not move the log along the saw !!

Cuts an eight inch plank,
Beam 5.9m long so have put it in between the pilot seats

Godrey said, 'It's still a heavy thing to carry into the jungle.'

Timber was flown in from Kiunga to construct a community health centre. This will help also build housing for two community health workers based there. Plus primary school for up to grade 8. Want to build a Baptist church.

'Only MAF goes to help very remote community,' says Sali (and Teri) - community workers from Eliptamin
