Danger--and sometimes tragedy--are a way of life for MAF pilots. In 1999 an MAF pilot, husband, and father of three was killed with his passengers when his aircraft was caught in a microburst (a violent downdraft) just short of landing on the strip pictured above. Post-crash investigation revealed that the Cessna augered into the mountainside at full throttle.
"He is no fool who gives up what he cannot keep to gain that which he cannot lose." Jim Elliot, MAF pilot and martyred missionary
