I Flew on a Humanitarian Aid Mission to Remote African Villages ksGR: You are right. Most Kenyans have never been to the upper part of the country because that place is so remote. The majority of people live in southern part of the country because urban areas and cities developed along the old railway line from Mombasa to Kisumu and Kampala through Nairobi. To make it worse, the Northern part of the country is the driest and with poor infrastructure. But I think that all this is about to change because of the ongoing road constructions in this remote part of Kenya.

What an incredible video, thank you Noel. This has to be one of your best. I am very familiar with MAF, having worked with them in Ghana, Burkino Faso and Indonesia. They do amazing work and facilitate a number of very worthy and important charities in the developing world. Thank you for raising awareness of them.

I had the opportunity to work alongside MAF flight operations in Port Au Prince Haiti for two weeks after the 2010 Earthquake. Its was a great experience. I also used their flights to ferry from boarding school to our house in Guatemala as a Missionary Kid. Thanks for sharing.

So you flew on the flight deck of a regional airliner? Cool! I was on the flight deck for the landing of a 747-300 in Perth for Qantas in 1994. That was back when those things were still possible, before 9/11! My dad kept asking them for me, and the third time they said yes!

Done a Flying Safari with Safarilink in Kenya, magnificent views when the weather is right. some bouncy landings also had to clear some wildlife before we could take off. even stayed at Governers Camp(now that is posh for a Nottinghamshire lad like me. great days.

How do you actually make money from these videos, do you work and do this in your free time, love the videos but cant understand how you justify it if its youre only source of income Unless my maths is awful you dont often break even per trip per video

What is the airport at 2: 48
Also, does anybody notice that the reg on Noel's headphones do not match the aircraft?
Edit: The Andover at the airport has been around the block a few times with two different air forces

The Caravan Aircraft are used extensively in Alaska. I flew into Entebbe, Uganda from Juba, Sudan in 1972.
That Refugee Camp was staggering. Enormous number of refugees. How can Africa ever take care of itself?

Hi Noel and Merry Christmas (sic. I have been watching a lot of your videos in the past year. One question, why do you quote multiple cruising altitudes for a single flight? Just wondered how it works? Thanks.

I've flown with MAF a lot in east Africa. Awesome people. Both C206 and C208s all over. And yes, I've had my share of spotting to help out, including dodging one near midair over Wilson. Fun times. :)

So good o MAF in action and to actually see Locichocio where we sen a container of aid so many years ago. The huge refugee camps never cease to affect me. So easy to forget how many refugees there are.
reply

Noel. Wow. I've watched every single one of your posts. This was great. Amazing work mate. And still funny to hear your accent as I'm from Tamworth. East mids as you know. Nice work mate. Stay safe

Great video noel, loving the African series! Also really great to acknowledge the work the MAF do! Thanks for the great content! Looking for to the next one. Happy Christmas to your family.
reply

I love your african adventures, looking forward to more! Good job showing the refugee camps. Some people seem to forget at times how privileged most of us still are.
reply

awesome vid Noel, I hope you pinch yourself everyday at some of theses incredible experiences - keep them coming! Happy Christmas to you and yours mate
reply

you should inspire that pilot to make his own videos, something similar to Missionalry Bush Pilot. It would make some really nice content
reply

What an incredible adventure. I used to arrange student travel groups to Kenya and would love to visit there someday. So enjoyed this video!
reply

Really interesting. The unsung heroes providing humanitarian services for refugees in the middle of nowhere where this must be their lifeline.
reply

That was one of your best videos to date. Thoroughly enjoyed it. I used to live in Kenya and visited MAF a few times in the past. Thanks.
reply

Fantastic. Thank you Noel. Reminds me of the RFDS (flying doctors) here in Australia. Us in the rural areas would be lost without them.
