Ready to Leave

Lancaster Sound, Canada

We are ready to leave and the two charter planes with the
new people and supplies are approaching the Resolute airport
but there is heavy fog and the planes are not allowed to land
and must return to Edmonton, Canada.

The airport has ground based radar for landing in fog but it
is undergoing maintenance this month and thus the airport
requires a visual landing. Resolute was not our original
departure point and this maintenance was started well
before we changed our plans due to the heavy ice.
