A long overdue update

Where does the time go to? So much has happened since the last update that it's difficult to know where to begin, but I'll give it a go. Here are some pictures showing the story of the past few months.

Road trip time - some Yolngu friends showing us their homeland

Gerard shows us how it should be done

That's one for later

My turn

The fish being cooked over the fire. We had one full fish each and were all stuffed .. great!

This is our newly built hanger with the MAF fleet out the front

We had a dedication service inside

One of the kids looking at the memorial to Hadleigh. It's been just over a year now since the accident. For those that prayed for the aircraft search back in Aug when the specialist equipment arrived, unfortunately nothing was found and all search efforts have now ceased.

My new ride (a 206). I call it the sports car. I've been flying it the last few weeks and now alternate between this and the Airvan.

Catching up on some reading during a sit & wait. Contrary to popular belief it's not "flying for dummies" ;-)


Some passengers on a typical flight

My Wawa (brother) on a flight down to his homeland for the weekend

Some local kids

My bike and swag at a local area where i go for some alone time with God. Away from all distractions and a great opportunity to star gaze.

One of the many beautiful beaches. Pity about the crocs, sharks and stingers


Some of the kids at the kids club


More friends at kids club

More friends from the Bible study

Me reading at Gerard's baptism

Gerard being baptised. It was a wonderful day and we got to hear Gerard tell all his family and friends about how Jesus has changed his life and could do the same for them. Praise God!
