  • This village is located in the Star Mountains of Papua, Indonesia. The runway is beautiful and tucked in a valley, making it impossible to go around. After the last ridge on the right you are pretty much committed to land.
    The village is known for the Kulit Masohi (similar to sandal wood) and we fly lots of it out.
    This video was recorded over 6 months and it took about 4 months to assemble.

    As a Brazilian air traffic controller, I can't find a word to describe how beautiful and wonderful was this film. This is amazing! Looks like a dream! You are making history! Some tears dropped from my eyes watching this video and the kids having fun with the drone. God bless you! I'm already a fan of you! You connect this people to the rest of the world! AMAZING!!! 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷

    So very familiar. We worked at Tiom in West Papua 1973-75 and MAF serviced our area. Our daughter was born at Mulia. She is 48 now. My wife is now passed. A trek that took me 2 days, we could cover in a 10 minute flight. So many memories. The Danis were wonderful people.

    Becoming a pilot in Papua is very difficult due to uncertain natural conditions. If there is a pilot who can fly in Papua then he can fly anywhere in the world. Without any international administrative restrictions, you have the ability to fly without geographical restrictions anywhere on the planet. God bless Mr. Pilot

    The Pilatus Porter was the first ever plane I flew on back in 1967 when I was just 7yrs old. Dad worked on the Snowy Mountains Scheme in Australia, and the Pilatus was a major transportation method for the smaller remote Townships of "The Snowy" . Still one of my very favorite planes of all time. I have a model on my desk at work. Your videos are great. Thanks for the memories ....haha

    That's far nicer than staying in a jet's cockpit for hours doing nothing but looking at the EFIS, MFD, PFD, etc. In those commercial flights all we can do manually is to take off (and press the autopilot button between 1000' and 10000' , as it's mandatory for many air companies around the globe ) and then await till we're authorized to intercept ILS, when we disengage autopilot and land the plane manually when the aircraft is stabilized. Kudos to you, mate! 👍👍
