Comments

Finished fly off. Total of 25 return flights to Casey over 2 days. About 6000 kg of cargo and 23 people to Casey; 1500 kg cargo and 24 people from Casey. A big thanks to everyone for the extra effort and help to finish the flying before the weather closed in. Final ice station completed yesterday evening. Heading north this morning, plan to trawl for krill prior to leaving the sea ice. Regards Vicky, Karin and Barbara
