MAF Pilot Brad Venter was preparing for a a full day's program when he was alerted to a medevac need in Goroka, PNG. A women retained placenta after giving birth and was in critical need of medical attention.
On landing, the people in the village brought her to the aircraft on a well-made bamboo stretcher. While I loaded her into the aircraft, Sarah was able to do another airstrip survey.
Rest of story if we think it appropriate.
This is fast becoming an urgent need for the team in PNG. The old systems in the two aircraft are increasingly obsolete and are a source of significant challenges in maintenance and certification.
We urgently need to raise at least $150,000AUD, which is the cost required to refurbish one aircraft.
Currently, the oldest aircraft in our fleet is from 1990 – making it 33 years old. In its lifetime it’s flown over 17,500 hours. Another aircraft, just a year younger, is approaching 23,500 hours of flight time.
The Fleet Renewal Plan addresses the need for refreshment, avionics standardisation, and reduction in the age of our C208 fleet.
Our immediate need is four new Cessna Caravans: 3x standard Cessna Caravans, and 1x Grand Caravan EX – which has increased cabin and cargo capacity, and a more powerful engine.
The cost to MAF to purchase and modify a Grand Caravan EX is about US$3.4m and a standard Caravan US$3.1m.
US Dollars is the currency of aviation.
