A sad day...RIP

Friday was a sad day for patrol nr. 4 from the Sirius patrol. They got caught in an avalanche and lost 8 of their 12 dogs and some of their equipment. They got evacuated by a TWO from Iceland. It took the plane 28 hours to reach them, as the distance was around 2000 km...

It is VERY GOOD to have Icelandic friends flying in one of the most harshest parts of the world, always willing to come to your aid :D
