  • This video is the introduction to a new series of videos filmed aboard NASA's P-3 Orion
    This mission is completely different than the videos from São Tomé for the ORACLES mission; new crew, new scientists, new instruments & a completely different configuration inside the aircraft.
    Check this one out, and come along to Thule & Kangarlussuaq Greenland!
    Operation Ice Bridge (OIB)'s purpose is to measure the thickness of Greenland's glaciers & the polar Ice Cap, & track the variances from year to year. This is the LAST leg of the multi-year campaign.

    Thanks for this video. Is this plane the same platform that the navy used to hunt subs (say in the 70's)? The tour left me thinking it may be a "stretch" P-3, seems really long. Anywhoo on Ground roaming around Thule was pretty interesting to me. I spent a year at the USAF North Mountain Transmitter Site during '61-'62 time frame. That site was nominally 25-28 guys. At the peak of the cold war Thule had 10,000 plus personnel (Usaf, Army, Danes, and a Coast Guard installation nearby). Arrived in November (full dark season). Played football at midnight during brief summer. The Army had one of their Nike sites between us and main base. Again Thanks for the video.

    You landed at Kangerlussuauq, Sønderstrømfjor, former US Air Base and then jump-cut to Thule Air Base, right?

    Very nice Sr! The audio was great, is nice to have ambient sound hahaha and was perfectly understandable when you talk.
    See the windshield cracking was a surprise, definitely a reminder of a unusual cold operation.....

    I miss seeing that plane and signing up for the flights. I did manage to take a decent light painting pic of it one night

      Oh, that’s cool- I’d love to see it. I’ll f you want to send it to me, maybe I’ll post it in the VLOG, with credit, of course.
      Thanks for watching!

      @@UnusualAttitudes I never realized I hadn't uploaded the time lapse I did of it. Haha. But I went ahead and did that along with a link to the image. Not sure if Mitch is still up there in Thule, but he has a copy of the file. If you'd like a copy I'd be happy to email it.

    Converted Lockheed Electra?

    • @UnusualAttitudes
      @UnusualAttitudes  5 лет назад

      No, the P-3 Orion’s were purpose-built by Lockheed Martin, but they are in fact a variant of the Electra- good eye!!
