Comments

Ship remained stationary yesterday and moved 1 Nm to an open pool last night. Most cargo flown off yesterday in perfect weather with 2 sling loads remaining. Decision taken not to attempt to complete all yesterday after a very big day on Tuesday. Today forecast NE wind and snow have arrived, so no operations. Enjoying a rest day on ship, field training has recommenced. Plan to retrieve Winterers at first opportunity. Regards, Don and Anthony
