For getting around on Ice
Basler BT-67
The Basler DC3 underwent significant enhancements, including modern turboprop engines, an extended fuselage, reinforced wings, and upgraded avionics. A strengthened landing gear improves performance on rough terrain, while a higher maximum takeoff weight (MTOW) increases capacity. The cabin was fully redesigned, and cargo modifications enhance versatility and efficiency. Blending vintage style with modern technology, nothing about the actual aircraft is, in fact, old.
BASLER BT-67
The Basler BT-67 is a versatile and durable aircraft that is able to land on snow and ice. It has a wide cabin, extended range and is used for flying in the interior of Antarctica – most notably to the South Pole and Emperor Penguins.
We have two identical aircraft and the crew are highly experienced in polar operations. Our chief pilot has 10 seasons of Antarctic experience, and last year, all our groups reached the South Pole.
