  • TH E ORNEY Flying in Chad
    Volume 12 - Issue E May 2016 ORNEY Dave: www.theforneyflyer.blogspot.com Joy: www.joyforney.org FIELD REPORT: TH LYER 2 Dave,F Joy, Britt, Hannah, Hudson, Tanner, Tyler, and Gift EAST AFRICA Flying in Chad MAF flies to thousands of locations in dozens of countries throughout the world. In fact, about every three minutes an MAF aircraft is taking off or landing somewhere at the ‘ends of the earth,’ bringing help and hope to people in some of the hardest-to-reach places. Chad is one such 1 2 place—a vast country with some of the most desolate and 4 3 inhospitable terrain on the planet. The needs in Chad are as immense and dynamic as the ever-changing, sun-scorched Saharan sands, which cover much of the country. Recently, the MAF Chad Program sent their Cessna Grand Caravan aircraft down here to Uganda for a major avionics (radio instruments) upgrade—a huge job that will take several months to complete. So in the meantime the MAF Uganda Program agreed to send one of our Caravans up to Chad, to help ‘fill the gap’ until theirs returns. Problem solved, right? Wrong. In order to legally fly a Ugandan-registered aircraft, a pilot must have a Ugandan license. That’s where I came in. I was asked to spend three weeks as a ‘relief pilot’ in Chad, where I got to do some very strategic and exciting flights to some very remote locations. I’ve been to many countries in the world, but this was certainly some of the most awe- inspiring, uninhabitable terrain that I’ve ever seen or flown over, anywhere.

  • Life in Lockdown
    LIFE IN LOCKDOWN Dear friends, Good morning from Kampala. We know many of you in different countries throughout the world have experienced a unique six months as governments have tried to control the spread of COVID 19. We have waited and waited in sending this update, to try and bring you all some news on where things are going in Uganda, but in theory at least we are still in lockdown. Yes, you can wear a mask and drink a Having a hard life working from home smoothie! (office in a box) The blessings of a gas regulator. On the box it says "Blessed in the nation Fathers day in lockdown whose God is the Lord...." Uganda initially implemented a very strict lockdown with all public and private transport closed, markets and arcades restricted, international travel forbidden and schools and churches closed. While most workplaces were not formally closed the lack of transport meant that many people couldn't attend work. In theory we are still in semi-lockdown, not that you would really notice, the only things that now affect us are curfew, Geoff's working in the hangar being restricted to four days a week (sometimes), school being conducted over the internet, and not being able to return to the UK. However the situation for MAF Uganda is still difficult, with flying being restricted to cargo only and cross border flights requiring complex permissions. The quiet roads of the full lockdown are now as busy and polluted as before. The taxis (mini vans which can carry up to 14 people normally) have resumed service, but with social distancing (half the number of passengers = twice the price).

  • Nov. 11, 2012, Bunia, DR Congo
    LEARN MORE ABOUT THE JACOBSSONS HERE -> Nov. 11, 2012, Bunia, D. R. Congo “Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good. His love endures forever!” Psalm 136:1 Dear Friends, There is much to join together in prayer and thanksgiving! Today is my Beloved’s birthday! Dave is currently in Boise, Idaho, USA for a couple of weeks for follow up appointments related to his flight medical. He arrived Nov. 2 and will begin his journey back to Africa on Nov. 17 and arrive home to Bunia on Nov. 19. He is staying with my parents and has also been able to have time with our son Matthew and visit at his university campus in nearby Nampa at Northwest Nazarene University. We’ll appreciate prayer for Dave’s remaining time there and safe travel back, and for Andrew and myself here in Bunia. We’ve had smooth days so far, for which we are thankful! Our Cessna 208 Caravan aircraft (9Q-CAU) will soon be out of service for a major inspection (NDT) which will last for 3-4 weeks at the MAF Uganda maintenance base at Kajjansi outside of Kampala. (see photo) Three of our pilots (and their wives) will be in Kampala for the inspection work. Pray that God will bless the work of their hands, give wisdom and that the inspection will progress smoothly. Pray for our remaining families in Bunia and the 2 pilots left to do the flying in the two Cessna 206’s. Our family may go out to help the final week or two to relieve the others when Dave gets back from the USA.
