In 1949-50 two RAF Auster 6s equipped with floats, skis and wheels took part in a Norwegian - UK - Swedish Antarctic Expedition, operating from Queen Maud Land.

One is now resident at the RAF Museum Cosford leading me to doubt if they left any behind.

Such nostalgia, I nearly stayed in the RAF after looking that one up, but on second thoughts: Not long to do
