In the late 60s Gemini wangled a display at Bardufoss, inside the Arctic circle. In the short-range JP4 we had to stage via Manston (customs), Aalborg (Denmark), Gardermoen, Oerland and Bodo (Norway). It took a week to get there and back. As we had only ARC52 UHF we had to fly in company with a Dominie, who did all the RAFAIR airways chat on VHF. We did IMC letdowns formating on the Dominie. Happy days!

The Dominie also carried the Duty Free!
