This is the incredible moment a pilot became the first to land an Airbus A340 on Antartica.

The cargo jet was chartered by Wolf's Fang, a new luxury holiday camp at the South Pole, to bring supplies to their tourist resort.

The plane touched down on the icy runway on Tuesday after a 2,800-mile journey taking just over five hours from Cape Town.

The runway at the Wolf Fang resort is designated a C Level airport, meaning that only a highly specialised crew of pilots can fly there due to the extreme conditions.

The plane is seen coming into land as tents stand at a camp in the South Pole.

The blue glacial ice is almost a mile thick and can withstand a fully-laden A340 with no problems.

Make una go Uranus if una wan amaze me

It is only expected of developed nations to keep breaking new grounds and making histories positively as it is expected of backward nations who has their highly illiterate ancient of days as their leaders to break new debt records.
Thank you Explorer...

The crew holds up a banner to celebrate their record-making achievement after landing on Tuesday.

Pacesetters!

Congratulations to them.

Just a glimpse of Science, some Nigerians will be at church tomorrow for all night service.

One of the places I will live to visit. Plus south and North Pole, see the aurora etc

Never knew Antarctica was 5 hours away from South Africa.

Once I saw the title, I suspected Explorers, and I wasn't disappointed

ok

Who snap the pictures of plane outside? How did he/she gets there ?

Private Jets, Mission ships but never before a mighty Airbus.
Happenings in Antarctica is heavily shrouded in secrecy and conspiracy.

Definitely people were there before.

I would have loved to see how the brake and tires reacted to the chilly slippery ice

I need me a trip to Mars and Moon.

Praying for what is already being achieved in developed nations.
