Question

All in all, I thought the programme was well done and full marks to CTV for airing it in the first place - high time an all-Canadian feat was given some American-style puffery.
One question I've had for some time went unanswered. Why wasn't a relief crew of two pilots aboard for the flight to the pole. who could have handled the return trip after a fast turnaround, while the outbound crew rested? I'm sure this plan was considered but why was it not implemented?
