Thanks to all the MAF supporters who visited the MAF display at ReachOut at Katoomba on the third weekend in August, especially those who brought friends along.   And thanks to all the other people who dropped by the display and learned more about MAF's work around the world.  ReachOut, as usual provided inspiring Bible teaching on Mission as well as an opportunity to interact with 60 missions represented at the conference.  Contact was made with several people who are considering becoming a missionary with MAF and others who were interested in supporting MAF's work in various ways.  The display was staffed by  NSW State Council Chairman, Chris Sinfield, Area Rep. Ron Watts and State Rep. Tom Teale-Sinclair.

Work is moving apace that will soon result in a brand new hangar for MAF at the Gove airfield in Arnhem Land.

The frame began to take shape within days of the huge steel girders arriving by overland transport early in June.

When completed, the work will bring to an end the cramped, uncomfortable working conditions that engineers and pilots have tolerated for years in the old hangar.
