Our 'Featured Videos' are of a group of flights of a variety of aircraft landing at Antarctica on a  'Blue ice runway'.

The first video is posted by Hi Fly Airline of their A340, registration 9H-SOL, in 'C24 / Preighter' configuration landing on a flight from Cape Town on November 2, 2021. 

A 'Preighter', also known as cargo in cabin, is an aircraft originally intended to carry passengers but which is operated temporarily as a cargo aircraft by loading freight in the passenger cabin. This flight was carrying supplies for a seasonal 'adventure tourism' operation.
