Hi TFS,
I guess there might be others out there, with the $ being so low, considering this trip.
You donīt give your experience, but the trip is not for the fient hearted. An IR is usefull.
First you will need special insurance and your experience will be taken into consideration.
The safety equipment to be carried is likely to be inspected by the Canadian authorities before you are allowed to set out across the pond.
Expect to be flying legs over the water for a minimum of 4-5+ hours, depending on the winds. Do you want to do this in an aircraft that you donīt know how its been treated by the previous owner? You canīt ask the Cirrus pilot who crashed into the sea just outside BGBW this winter, RIP, what he thinks about the owner. He didn't order a winterisation kit with the aircraft as it was to fly in Thailand.
The SAR facilities are virtually non existant for most of the route between Goose and Iceland.
If you end up at any airfield other than BGBW, BGGH, or BGSF in Greenland you will be expected to buy the whole drum of fuel, 300+ ltrs, not cheap. Some fields have only Jet 1A and nothing else. Always check availabilty, the new supplies may not have arrived by ship.
The en route weather forcast is not likely to be very accurate.
You cannot expect any help with maintenance between Goose and Iceland. This could and does result in the aircraft being left at some out of the way airport and getting an engineer in to fix it. This is not a cheap operation.
I have seen private pilots get out of their aircraft at BGBW and say no more, they will be shaking. Happened this January, not the best time of year for the venture. Then they get ferry pilot in, to finish the job.
Choose the ferry company carefully, Some ferry pilots will lean the engine so much that a minimum requirement will be for you to replace the plugs when you take delivery. Its not their aircraft
You will require plenty of time and money so that you can hit the right opening in the weather, OH and a bit of luck.
Have you thought of getting it over by container?
Why go via DK it would seem to be a long way round.
On the plus side there are many who have made the trip and had a great time.
Just some thoughts about your project.
