I am old git.
I have calibrated in Narsasuaq ( Bluie West 1) GodtHåb ( Nuuk) Søndre Strøm and Jacobshavn, in OY-NUK in 1994.
Great trip. I also flew for the Indians at Muskrat Dam in Ontario in 1992.
I see now that I was not politically correct,,,,,

Standard operation with a A330 into Nuuk with 2200 meters to CPH is OK, but it better be CAT3c.
As fare as N-1 on any diversion on a dark and stormy night, I would like to have Søndrestrøm still as an option.
But I cant say I have analysed it in detail, but if I go longhaul , I most certainly shall.
Regards
