Milt Very interesting.
Thanks for posting.
SS Herta Maersk before she was seized by the Coast Guard in 1941 under the Ship Requisition Act and re-named the SS Montrose
SS Montrose hit a submerged rock in Skovfjord, 6 July 1942
The Fjord Approach is spectacular - provided conditions are good. The airfield advises pilots pilots without a knowledge of the area and good met conditions not to attempt to approach Narsarsuaq through the fjords unless the ceiling is at least 4.000ft and flight visibility at least 5 sm (8 km).
There is sometimes severe turbulence and windshear in vicinity of the airport, particularly to the south of the field.
There can't be many airfields in the world where pilots are warned about a large iceberg on the approach!
