The broken engine is just on the way back inside the Antonov but it's planed to land at EMA if i am right.
Also HB-JND is on the way to Zurich. They did a good job in Iqaluit.

dodger, it's Zurich, as stated in the headline. Iqaluit has grass, but not in February, and the houses aren't as picturesque

Here's what I get when I click any of the links:

That's not Iqaluit. Nor is it in the middle of winter...

What's wrong with my browser. Cache cleared too.

I have loaded the 777 engine on a 747, I am a Loadmaster.

Not sure that this is newsworthy. I expected to at least see the engine being unloaded, or something.

That's just one expensive charter flight. I'm wondering how there getting the old engine out of iqaluit.

Is that a serious comment? They might have room on the inbound flight to take out the old one? Perhaps?

It was just a question. And two I'm
Not sure if they have the equipment to pull the engine and have it prep before the flight gets there. It is a remote airport.

The engine was pulled and waiting...HB-JND is already back in Zurich..It may be remote but it has it's fair share of aircraft visitors A380, A350, B777, A320NEO and engines galore
