Trans-AntarcticaExpedition-The-Ilyushin-76-landing-at-King-George

The Russian Ilyushin-76-landing-at-King-George Island with all the supplies, gear, dogs, team members and journalists. The first ever landing of such a big plane on such a short airstrip... Russia provided logistical support with the massive Ilyushin-76 to get to Antarctica and once the team reached the other side of Antarctica, a Russian research vessel was ready to transport the team out of Antarctica.
