All help greatly appreciated.

Are you taking the North Atlantic route?

I flew it last summer in a PBY, Wick Scotland - Keflivik - Narsarsuaq - Goose.

If you are going that route the most important factor is be very , very sure of the weather especially in Greenland.

GREENLAND AIRPORT AUTHORIY (http://www.glv.gl/) has some on-line infos. Danish DCAA (http://www.slv.dk/) sports the entire Greenland AIP.
