Byrd Flight Advised By Sydney Professor
Sir Edgeworth David, a Sydney authority who joined Shackleton in Antarctica, says Byrd’s planned South Pole flight hinges on choosing a solid base. He notes Amundsen set a base at the eastern Ross Barrier while Shackleton’s team faced frequent blizzards near the Andes, making air use difficult. David believes South Pole exploration by air will be harder than the North Pole, but landing may be easier since the area is largely land.
