Asking for fine weather in three locations
The expedition members is to ask for good weather for flying in three locations at once, before it is possible for ANI to fly Kristian and Gregers out from the South Pole as soon as possible.
The Cessna plane waiting in the camp at Patriot Hills in the western Antarctica must not only have good weather to take off. There must also be good flying weather at the Thiel Maountains cache a little more than halfway on the 1100 km long stretch to the South Pole, where, of course, the weather must allow the plane to land, too.
The latest two days have seen bad flying weather in two locations and one, respectively, so the Cessna plane was still waiting until Tuesday at Patriot hills.
Anne Kershaw, the manager of ANI, reports that the company has made extraordinary preparations to Fly kristian and Gregers out as soon as possible.
The original agreement was to the effect that they were to await a common flight with another expedition, but the latter is only expected at the Pole in four days.
Says Anne Kershaw, "But we are ready to help them get home soon."
