Hi all!

Well, i took me about 2 days to get a flight out of Iceland! Annoying winter schedules, Iceland air only flies to JFK, Boston, ... or Europe! Not to Greenland as i planned! Bummer...

But then i met some French scientists who were on route to Thule - Greenland. They had chartered a Air Greenland Beechcraft King air, and i could join them if i wanted! OF COURSE! Lets go!

Flight from Reykjavik (Iceland) to Kangerlussuaq ( Greenland) - Refuel stop in Kulusuk ( Greenland) ( Who invents these names....?)

At the gate in Reykjavik

Flying away from Iceland!
Image

Level flight, enjoying the little sun we can catch this time of year...
Image

Relaxing, isn't it... I forgot all my troubles
Image

Is that tiny white spot an iceberg???
Image

Whow! Sun clouds and snow, nice view ...l
Image

Approach of Kulusuk - Not what you call an international airport ...
Image

At the gate, time to refuel

I'am not quite sure when we will arrive in Kangerlussuaq, you'll see when i post...

Bye


Btw: How great is FS9 - when comming out of the clouds in the snow, with some sun and the first view on Greenland, while Chris Isaac is playing a wicked game on the radio ... Heavenly! I don't think no other program has ever touched me like that...
