Tour Details
Papua New Guinea Tour Part 2Description: Dust off your high-altitude STOL machines! This tour takes us to 56 airfields in the lowlands and highlands of Papua New Guinea, aka PNG. Papua New Guinea is a mountainous, culturally diverse nation north of Australia, home to over 800 languages and rich biodiversity. Formerly administered by Australia, it gained independence in 1975. Most people live rurally, relying on subsistence farming, with air transport the only alternative to multi-day hikes to reach medical and other services. The "Missionary Bush Pilot" YouTube series features pilot Ryan who travels the country in his Kodiak 100, resupplying remote villages and providing air transport. Our tour begins at Gurney on the eastern end of the island, traveling through the mountainous interior region, and the plains to the north- and southwest, ending at Madang on the north-central coast. 56 legs split in three parts, 2,692 nm Note: If you are flying in MSFS 2020 or 2024, some of the strips are available in the ORBX PNG Highland Bush Strips packs, while many others can be found on flightsim.to You must complete all 3 parts to receive the completion badge Tour created by Mark S (MAC0696) Division: Open Division bool(false) |  |
