Suitable alternatives
I have been out of the long haul loop for some 15+ years now but I'm fascinated seeing on FR24 these aircraft going over the pole (more or less). What are they using as en route diversions? The recent AF diversion highlighted the problems involved in a crippled aircraft diverting to a remote airfield, and Goose is not the most remote, I'm sure.
I always remember chatting to the bored air traffickers at Churchill in the middle of the night. How many other airfields have not only ATC, but fire crews and others at standby?
I'm interested, that's all.
