Photo of Our Ski
Team is loaded for the North Pole, photo.
North Pole
Expedition 2002.
We
unloaded our equipment first, then loaded the ski teams equipment aboard an
An-26 on Sredney Island. In this photo you can clearly see the An-12 Cub
and a portion of the An-26.
Now our Ski team is completely loaded
and they're ready to head to the pole while we wait in the Sredney Island
hotel. Ha! Ha! If this is considered a hotel, then Sredney
is a tropical island. Actually I'm just joking about it being a hotel,
it was just a building on the island which I will describe more in detail
later in this exhibit. In the photo here we are transferring equipment
from the An-12 Cub, in the background, to the An-26 Curl in the foreground on
the left side of the photo.

Just before the expedition, one of our
Expedition Members took a ride to the Edge of Space in a MiG-25, he
said it was absolutely fantastic.
