About :

Narrow-body and wide-body passenger transporters on the blue ice. Boeing 737s, 767s, 787s, Airbus A320s and 340s have already visited Antarctica in addition to large military cargo carriers. But how can 80-100 ton or even heavier jet engines brake and stop from a speed of 240-250 km/h on an ice track, or more precisely, an ice track? What method is used to roughen the surface to have some braking effect? Why are there regular charter flights to the coldest region on Earth? How do the special landing sites in Antarctica work? What kind of preparation do airplane pilots and flight attendants go through before such a trip? How many landing sites are there in the Antarctic ice world? We talk about this with Gábor Szakács, chief pilot of Smartwings Hungary.
