Frobisher to homebase non ETOPS?

Airbubba.
Looks to me they came in over Greenland north of Narsasuaq with no ETOPS required. Returning I shure as hell stay away from that place.
Take route a litle north and Søndre Strømfjord is Your safe haven then Keflavik and Bergen.
Narsasuaq is lovely if you are on fire with a 777, but if not, DONT.
Did calibration flights in a Beech 200 there and the rest of the coast up to Disco Bay, fantastic. summer of 1994.
Remember buzzing Eric The Reds homestead on final,,,

Any problem on takeoff head for Gander?
Anyway, in a few days we see.
