Ethnos360 Aviation Advancing the spread of the Gospel through aviation to see a thriving church for every people.

Ethnos360 serves people in the most remote regions of the world to expand the work of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. NTM's Aviation Division provides the planes and pilots that make such remote works feasible, providing a lifeline between tribal villages and civilization. Missionaries need transportation into distant, often unnavigable regions. NTM Aviation pilots and aircraft ferry missionaries, supplies and villagers in need of emergency services. The FLIGHT CREW is a partnership and support group that helps Ethnos360 Aviation defray the costs of missionary flights, and expand services to new, as yet unreached peoples.

OUR VALUES | EXCELLENCE

In aviation, “good enough” isn’t good enough.

But for us, the pursuit of excellence is about more than safe aircraft, well-trained pilots or getting the job done well. It reflects something about the God we serve.

We believe the pursuit of excellence reflects God’s character and His ongoing work in our lives. That means continually growing, learning and looking for ways to improve—in our productivity, training, best practices and personal growth.

Excellence doesn’t mean perfection. It means faithfully pursuing growth and doing our work in a way that honors God.

This is the next stop in our Our Values series. We’re taking a closer look at the values that shape the people behind the flights and the way we serve. Follow along and see what drives Ethnos360 Aviation beyond the aircraft and airstrips.

It’s here! 🎉

Thank you for praying for PNG’s third R66. After its journey to Papua New Guinea, the helicopter arrived in Goroka today!

Tomorrow, the team will begin unloading, with assembly planned for next week. There are still a few paperwork hurdles to work through—especially the engineering order for the HF radio—so we’d appreciate your prayers as the team works through those details and takes on the many steps involved in getting this helicopter ready to fly.

We’re thankful to see it safely here and excited to see what God will do through it!

OUR VALUES | SPIRIT-CONTROLLED LIFE

What happens when the work of aviation ministry starts with a life surrendered to the Lord?

At Ethnos360 Aviation, we believe a Spirit-controlled life, committed to the authority of Scripture, is foundational to everything we do. It honors God and produces the fruit of the Spirit—along with humility, a heart for discipleship, prayer, servant leadership and a life centered on Christ.

These values aren’t just words on a page. They shape how our people live, work, serve and relate to one another every day.

OUR VALUES | TEAMWORK

What keeps an aviation ministry moving? It takes more than airplanes, pilots and mechanics. It takes people who are willing to work together.

Over the next several weeks, we’re going to introduce you to the values that shape Ethnos360 Aviation—values that influence how we serve, how we work together and how we pursue our mission.

First up is Teamwork.

We believe teamwork reflects the Trinity and the Body of Christ. It means depending on one another, building healthy relationships, holding one another accountable and approaching our work with the attitude that we’re part of something bigger than ourselves.

Every flight is a team effort. And every team member has a part to play.

Follow along as we take a closer look at Our Values and what they look like in aviation ministry.

The 2027 Ethnos360 Aviation calendar is getting closer to the printer. All the photos and written material have been sent to the designer, but there’s still work to do—especially getting the mailing list ready while new systems are being put in place.

Pray for Ellen as she works through the database challenges and gets everything ready for mailing.

Work is moving forward on the new hangar in Brazil.

For now, pilot Kyle Couillard is splitting operations between the distant hangar in Cruzeiro do Sul and Rio Branco’s municipal airport, where he can fly passengers but not cargo. It’s not ideal, but God has been faithful to keep everyone safe during this transition.

Meanwhile, the construction crew is making good progress. Pray they can finish quickly and safely, and pray for Kyle as he continues flying under these temporary conditions.

Also pray for Bruno and Su Siqueira and their boys as they take a much-needed break after years of serving in Brazil.

There’s a lot happening behind the scenes for the Ethnos360 Aviation Media Team.

Wonita is preparing the next Aviation Journal, Jeff and Wonita are getting ready for a three-week trip that includes Liberty University, and most of the team will soon head to Florida for meetings with other Ethnos360 communications and development teams.

Pray for Phil, Ellen, Jeff, Wonita and Joy as they keep up with a busy season of work.

The R66 helicopter for Papua New Guinea has reached the Port of Lae.

Soon, it will begin the long journey by truck to the Ethnos360 Aviation hangar in Goroka, escorted by security vehicles along rough, narrow, hilly roads.

The trip is one of the most vulnerable parts of the journey. Pray for safe travel and God’s protection over the helicopter, the drivers and everyone involved.

It started with a helicopter landing.

In 2022, on the first day of ministry flights for the first R66 helicopter in Papua New Guinea, pilot Josh Verdonck flew into the Kuyu people group to test a potential landing spot.

Today, that same ministry is helping support a team that has spent years learning the Kuyu language and culture, translating Scripture, teaching literacy, and preparing Bible lessons.

Recently, a consultant and his wife flew in to encourage the team and help sharpen plans for Phase 1 Bible teaching—and eventually reaching the other five Kuyu villages.

From a landing spot in the jungle to a cleared site for a teaching house, God is steadily opening the way for His Word to reach the Kuyu.

We’re grateful to play a small part in getting the people and resources there.

Something is taking shape in Kuyu.

A few weeks ago, this patch of ground was dense jungle. Now the trees are down, the stumps are out and the Kuyu people are preparing a place where they will soon hear God’s Grand Story.

For years, the team has been learning the Kuyu language and culture, teaching people to read and write, translating Scripture, and preparing Bible lessons. Now, after years of preparation, *Phase 1* Bible teaching is getting closer.

One Kuyu man from another village has already started building a house nearby so he can stay and hear the teaching later this year.

Church planter Michael LeBlanc says, “There’s a growing sense around the village that something big is coming.”

Please pray for the Kuyu team as they prepare to begin teaching Creation to Christ — and for the Kuyu people who will hear God’s Word.
