Alexander Abramov from Antarctica:
Hello! This is Alex Abramov from Antarctica, Vinson Massif. Artem Rostovtsev is waving his hand. There was an unique event – for the first time today Airjet Falcon landed on the Union Glacier. Moreover, the plane landed in bad weather. The pilots gave 25% of a successful landing. Around there were clouds, fog... well, somehow they landed...
And the same day we moved to base camp. Also the weather was unfavorable. We were the only one who arrived under Mount Vinson.
