CTD Posted November 29, 2007 Report Share Posted November 29, 2007 Dark months of mad science aboard a Coast Guard icebreaker-turned-laboratory, supported by a Bell 212. CIRCUMPOLAR FLAW LEAD SYSTEM STUDY Here's a shot of Coast Guard 307 landing on the icebreaker CCGS Amundsen off Bank's Island this week. Brrr.

Guest graunch1 Posted November 29, 2007 Report Share Posted November 29, 2007 Obviously the Amundsen had to slow down to allow the 212 to catch up Shades of Tuk by the Sea in the winter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There must be somewhere a bit warmer than that for an old guy. Seriously those icebreakers when they are under way in the ice are a sight to behold.

Guest graunch1 Posted November 29, 2007 Report Share Posted November 29, 2007 Class 12 Icebreaker I think should be able to cut continuously thru ice 12 feet thick-- Lots of horsepower Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
