Canadians and The Antarctic
Posted: Fri Jan 25, 2013 8:44 pm
A couple of our boys are missing in the Antarctic. As of Friday evening, rescuers are still awaiting a break in the weather so they can access the site of the downed Twin Otter on the Antarctic ice cap. Whiteout conditions and winds in excess of 170 kph have so far hampered search efforts.
This is the same Calgary-based operator that performed an emergency rescue of a doctor from the South Pole a few years ago - an operation that was at that time declined by the US Air Force.
