Fanova travelled to the USA in January for five months to pursue his Aircraft Mechanic Licence 👨‍🔧. He has now returned to the country and is working with the maintenance team.

We are happy to have him back. 😀

Our pilot Rutger Bakker completed his first solo flight in the Grand C208 EX here in Madagascar. He is now fully operational on type within MAF operations. ✈️

Our pilot Patrick Keller completed his first flight to Marolambo with the new Grand Caravan but also his last flight to this destination.

For 16 years, Patrick has flown countless hours to Marolambo, and he is, without doubt, the pilot who has flown to Marolambo the most. 🛬

We had the privilege of flying members of the Mercy Ships team, including Dr Michelle White (standing second from the left), CEO of Mercy Ships. ✈ ⛴

It was encouraging to reflect on the shared commitment between MAF and Mercy Ships.

Through school canteen programmes led by Convoy of Hope, many children in rural villages and in the South of Madagascar receive meals that help them stay in class and focus on learning. 🏫

Did you know ?

Back in 1993, in order to facilitate transport and travels between Antananarivo and Marolambo, MAF built and paved the airstrip in Marolambo that is still in use today!

Part of MAF's work is Bible translation and distribution. MAF flew a Church of Jesus Christ in #Madagascar team from Ivato to Fianarantsoa to distribute Bibles. The journey took 1 hr instead of 10 hrs by road. The team sold 2,000 Bibles & evangelised many. @maf_madagascar

We appreciate the early mornings, the sacrifices and above all, the grace of God that pushes us to do what we do.

Two weeks ago MAF flew Sara and her mother home from hospital in Mandritsara, Madagascar. Sara had recovered from an operation to separate her arm from her torso, following a severe burn when she was 13.
Praise God for Sara’s recovery 🙏

On 19 May, Pilot Ryan Unger flew 527kg of measle vaccines and related cargo to Marolambo, Madagascar. These vaccines will reduce the risk of an outbreak, like the one in 2019 which claimed the lives of over 800 people in Madagascar (BBC News).

Last month, MAF flew a shipment of measles vaccines to Mananara, Madagascar to help combat this child-killer disease 🇲🇬
We are so grateful to be able to make a difference in isolated communities around the world!
