Finally, after three years of calm, we're back on! Greenland Air Trophy 2023 - the most incredible aviation adventure on the planet. Fly your own plane across the Atlantic - the slow, fun, interesting way.It's about the journey, not the destination!Though, for Team Americas it is an easy way to get to Europe, and for Team Europe you can continue to Oshkosh - so the destinations are pretty cool as well!We're excited, and we hope you are too.

We're excited, after a two year gap, to again run the world's most exciting aviation competition.Please keep an eye on things as we collect new teams to join those from previous years!

We are happy to announce a partnership with SkyDemon for the Greenland Air Trophy.Many of you already have SkyDemon, some of you don't want it - this is fine.For info, the flight plan and briefing system is set up to coordinate via SkyDemon, so there may just be a little extra work if you don't have it.The software is amazing, and it's a worthwhile investment for more than just the Trophy. If you want to take a look, hit this link!

A very quick word to say thanks to those who did the dunker training (either in the UK or the synchronised Spanish one!). A good day had by all, in many ways like the Greenland Air Trophy itself - pushing the comfort levels a little bit but not too much.Also a great opportunity to meet nearly all of Team Europe, Duncan is lucky to have such a great group.It must be said, though, that Team Americas is way better, indeed the best ever - simply no question about it. :)On the 27th June, in Narsarsuaq, may the best team (Americas) win!Go Team!

Thank you Dennis - starting the 'working together for a common aim' ethos that is what the Greenland Air Trophy is all about!Picture is to make you smile - or we need bigger aircraft!
