MKB and VKB


We now have both Baslers here. MKB (in Red) and
VKB (in White). Both are operated by Kenn Borek Air
out of Canada and can land at smaller airfields and
colder weather. This is ideal for most of the Field
Camps where they will be flying this year. Right now
though, MKB is gearing up to take four flights of Polies
down to the South Pole Station to begin making the
transition from Winter to Summer seasons. Because the
Baslers can't carry much cargo, the folks going to Pole
on them will only be able to carry one bag on with them
that they will have to live out of until their bags
arrive on a LC-130 in a few weeks.
