Hi Nick, I visited Bantayan many years ago when I was actively flying and it was lovely. I have since hung my wings up now so am grounded well and truly, or would jump in the plane and come on up .. to help ..
I would like to get a group of interested people in Visayas together so maybe we can help each other become more active .. Sounds like you are already quite active already, well done .. I do not have any material per se, but will be looking as well. I want to try and get some mapping interest in Dumaguete, it is a University town and a prime location for teaching young people and generating interest ..
