Wiririma Pic...

I wanted to post a picture of an airborne view of Wiririma. Remember that it is the strip that we opened last week, and spent the time on the ground surveying. If you look closely you can see what used to be their old airstrip cutting across their new one. They told me that one was too short, and nobody would use it. So they started again, and built the current one you see. All told it took them 8 years of hand labor, carving these strips out of the jungle below. This is a very typical strip that we land in, rivers on the ends, about 60 feet wide, 500 meters long, etc.
