Into the Arctic

Into the Arctic

The Sky Polaris flight is officially in the Arctic zone now. As I am writing this, the tracking shows that Michel has crossed 66 degrees north which is known as the “Arctic Circle”. the destination now is Resolute, Nunavut, Canada, a distance of about 850 miles. Michel is now looking at ice, frozen tundra, and thousands of small frozen lakes.

The good news is that the weather has improved somewhat and the temperature is a warm -1 degree C and no precipitation. That is just a slight change from a few days ago when Michel had landed in the Bahamas! But it does show the abilities of the Sky Polaris RV-8 to span continents.

We hope Michel has the ability to communicate when he lands at Resolute and will keep you up to date with news.

Everybody from Spain is focused on the tracking system. It’s very nice from you to keep the whole World informed about this milestone for the Spanish Aviation. That’s a big feat accomplished by the Sky Polaris team. Thank you again. ¡Vamos, Michel!
