  • Friday Night Flights: Greenland (9:00pm ET)

    Summary
    [From Wikipedia..]
    Greenland has been inhabited off and on for at least the last 4,500 years by Arctic peoples whose forebears migrated there from what is now Canada. Norsemen settled the uninhabited southern part of Greenland, beginning in the 10th century, and Inuit peoples arrived in the 13th century. The Norse colonies disappeared in the late 15th century. In the early 18th century, Scandinavia and Greenland came back into contact with each other, and Denmark established sovereignty over the island.

    *Add missing routes to the SkyVector build if any legs are missing*

    Target Airspeed: [100kias -120kias]

    Average Cruising Altitude: 3,500 FT - 5,500 FT

    Preferred Aircraft: Bush aircraft preferred. I have to see what kind of spacing we will get between airports but we will be doing some coastal exploring as well. I will be flying the Piper Pacer Bush variant most likely but may change depending on our finalized flight plan.
