ALCI Aviation Limited of Oshawa, Ontario (aka Enterprise Air Inc.) began flying this Basler BT-67 on contract with the White Desert travel company in Antarctic during the 2019-2020 tourist season. White Desert guests fly from Cape Town to Antarctica in a Gulfstream G550 or G650 bizjets and land on Wolf's Fang blue ice runway (aka Blue One) in Queen Maud Land. The ALCI ski-equipped BT-67s fly guests between camps. Originally flown in the UK as RAF FD789 and G-AKNB, it was exported to the US in 1989 as N59NA. To Basler in 2014. To BT-67 N141PR in Sep. 2018 and to Canada in Nov 2019 as C-GOOU. This photo is copyright © Kenneth I. Swartz, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
