I hate to discover yeat more bugs when flying over and around either the north
or south pole. Actually, the north pole drop out of the air would be more
serious since there is no resquers around where as there is a base not far from
the south pole.

Either way, I would be scared like hell if I was the pilot on any of those
flights, or rather if I was pilot in any other aircraft as well. :P

Cheers,
Magnus
