New York to Goose Bay Canada
We are standing on the edge of North America prepared to leap across the first leg of our over water crossing. Tomorrow at 5am we will wake up to get the early morning weather, check winds and cloud cover in Narsarsuaq, Greenland and make a go/no-go decision. The forecast looks very good with acceptable winds and what should be a blue sky day in Greenland. However it is a very unstable part of the world's weather and we will constantly review actual status on the sat phone once airborne.
Back in time earlier today... we left the NJ airport this morning and flew down the Hudson river along side the skyscrapers in Manhattan. Spectacular views all around but we had to watch out for the constant helicopter traffic. I've posted some photos of today below:
