Moment Airbus A340 Passenger Plane Lands In Antarctica For The First Time
This is the incredible moment a pilot became the first to land an Airbus A340 on Antartica.
The cargo jet was chartered by Wolf’s Fang, a new luxury holiday camp at the South Pole, to bring supplies to their tourist resort.
The plane touched down on the icy runway on Tuesday after a 2,800-mile journey taking just over five hours from Cape Town.
The runway at the Wolf Fang resort is designated a C Level airport, meaning that only a highly specialised crew of pilots can fly there due to the extreme conditions.
