The arrival of an Hercules C-130 at Davis is a rare event. In fact, the brief visit on 29 January was only the second ever to land at Woop Woop ski landing area.
The flight brought in the last of our wintering expeditioners, Aaron Stanley (Bureau of Meteorology engineer), Jennifer Proudfoot (storesperson), and Ali Dean (station leader), plus Australian Antarctic Division Director, Dr Nick Gales, to stay for a few days.
Now the wintering team is complete.
