MAF in Arnhem Land
For over 50 years, MAF has been a trusted and integral part of Arnhem Land, building meaningful relationships with the Yolngu people and serving this vibrant region in northern Australia.
Each year, MAF transports over 13,000 passengers and operates lifeline flights to more than 50 remote airstrips, connecting isolated communities and islands with essential services and supplies. These flights support healthcare, education and community development, including patient transport, medevacs and domestic violence evacuations. MAF is the only provider of scheduled shuttle flights in the region, offering an affordable, regular service alongside flexible charter options. Beyond transportation, MAF partners with local leaders and organisations to meet cultural and practical needs, supports churches with outreach flights, assists Bible translators, and shares the Gospel through texts, resources and films. By bridging the gap between remote communities and vital resources, MAF enhances quality of life and empowers people to thrive in Arnhem Land.
