That has to be the best trip report I've ever read by a very considerable margin.
You are right, Kiruna is in Sweden. I was in Rovaneimi when I wrote that post. A walk in the park compared with your flight.
Where are you going next? The moon?
Very sincerest regards, David

possible!
One of our group landed there yesterday evening, spent about 12 hours on the ice, and is right now flying back (due into LYR in about 4 hours).
There's a photoblog here (though still to be updated post departure yesterday!).

Fly safe, fly further, Sam.

digits,
I've just read your blog. What a fantastic trip.
Having flown in the north of Canada a few times, including Churchill and Resolute, I can appreciate what a staggering acheivement the trip was.
Day 31 on the way home, I cannot find the airport name in your blog. Was it Farmington, Missouri?

NORTH POLE TRIP
Hi!
I am going with my plane to the geographic north pole at the end of march, a russian company is building a temporary runway for me and other few planes.
I have a spare seat and looking for someone to share the experience (and the expenses too
)
anyone interested?
