Ferry Flight UK to US

Been investigating the logistics/ misc. considerations of ferrying of a 109S across the North Atlantic. Getting to the West Coast of Iceland is no problem. However Reykjavik to Greenland is over 400nm. Too far even w/ both factory aux. tanks.

Anyone have experience or knowledge with fuel stops further North and West (BIRF or BIPA or other). Looking for a better launching off point to Greenland.
Also, from the West coast of Greenland at Godthab (BGGH) to Canada is even farther. Anyone have experience with fuel at a point further to the North where the crossing is as little as 190n.m.

Thanks.
