First Trike Flight in Antarctica?

Postby joel » Tue Feb 17, 2009 2:59 pm

Hi,
Christof and his trike flew from the brand new Belgian Elisabeth Base in Utsteinen, Antarctica.
He was asked to fly with a famous art fotographer to make some aerial fotographs of giant posters laid out around the base.
Nothing much interesting except that it was a unique opportunity to fly in Antarctica with a trike.

You can find some pictures here:

And a bit lower is a picture of myself in the Tanarg last Sunday :lol:

Here is his fotogallery:

It seems that this would be the first trike flight ever on Antarctica but we are not enterly sure of that.
Fly Safe,
Joel
