Any recent updates ? According to the flight tracker http://www.flightexplorer.com/LibertyBelle/ it looks like she is diverting to Kulusuk as weather is poor in Narsarsuaq. I wish all the crew a safe flight.

They’ll need that as the pilot of the escort King Air said that to fill to full tanks in the UK would cost £12,000. Horrendous.
VAT drawback?:)

Good to hear she and crew are safely over the pond.
However, talking to the crew chief at Baginton on Tuesday, he said she’s not “going home” but going straight into a tour of the USA. Flights cost $430.
