Take off from Aupuluk in gorgeous northern Quebec to my next stop in Pangnirtung in Nunavut Baffin Island. i thiink i'm going to stay there for the night because it's my last stay on Canadian turf for some time :(. So i need to get in contact with Canada/Greenland customs and declare whatever i'm taking out of Canada and bringing into Greenland. That should keep me busy for a couple of hours i think. Chief Waitondo gave me the names of a couple of his family members that live in Pangnirtung where i could stay for the night for agood nights sleep that i need very badly due to my wild night with Splash the other day ;D. I'm looking forward to continue my trip around the world and all of the excitement that lies ahead yoo hooo ;D.

Flying over beautiful Hudson Strait on my way to Nunavut :)

Entering Baffin Islands airspace, trying to make contact with there traffic tower with no respons from their side, whats wrong ???
Image
Some more wonderful shots of the inland of Baffin Island and still no reply from their tower :o

Approaching Pangnirtung (CYXP).

After a successful landing i found out that this airport didn't have a radio tower to communicate with ::). As you can see there was fuel available to refuel and the family from the Chief were right there waiting for me on their horses :D. As i said before i'm staying over for the night so i can rest up for my big journey over the Davis Strait that will bring me into Greenland airspace. See you all tomorrow morning at the break of dawn ;D

More to come sooner than later. Happy flying.
