I received the word document. Looks like you are well prepared.
I (a crazy man) would always leave with full fuel while flying over those
long unpopulated/water legs. While flying into Churchill Canada from
Iqaluit, we almost had to divert to our alternate airport about 1 hour away
due to low visibility....ground fog. We went around for a second look and
there was the runway pretty as can be. Closed in after we landed. Guess that
low pass cleared the runway?? One of us had to get out of the plane with a
flash light to find the taxi way! We had over three hours of extra fuel at
that point and we could have made it to our second alternate. We never
regretted the extra fuel.
You are in for the adventure of a lifetime. I'd do it again in a heartbeat!

I just made my first attempt at a mass email. Sent out our first trip
report to about 130 of you. The report itself is an MS WORD attachment.<<<
