Mibu Airstrip Project

The remote Mibu people of Papua New Guinea have been working on their airstrip for well over 20 years! Literally moving mountains by hand! Their airstrip was eventuallly approved, but due to an area of soft subsoil the first plane that landed experienced a devastating prop strike. The materials needed to correct this problem on their airstrip are far beyond the local community's ability to pay for. We're asking for help from all who might be led to give toward this need so their airstrip can finally be opened. Any amount helps! Gifts are tax deductible. Be sure to follow the link below. Check out the video there too!

Exciting New Mibu Video Clips

Recently, we borrowed a drone to get some video footage of the area here in Mibu. Here are a couple little clips we've been able to put together so far.

We hope you enjoy seeing Mibu from a different perspective!

Check out Mibu and it's surrounds from the air! The mountains and rugged terrain will leave no doubt why these mountains were dubbed 'The end of the world' by explorers so long ago. It also helps you understand the logistical challenges of our living and working here.
