Crossing the Atlantic is an incremental addition of risk to your operation. Decide beforehand on your acceptable level of risk. Mine is an aircraft that is turbine-powered, pressurized, has anti-ice capabilities, and has no ferry tanks. YMMV.

Fatigue is the real danger on a sustained mission. Arm yourself with a plan to combat fatigue beforehand.

Part checklist, part walk-through, this tabletop exercise provides a comprehensive summary of all trip preparation and execution for a trans-Atlantic mission.

Our trip will be tailored for two operations: a PC-12 along the former Blue Spruce Routes and a G600 flying non-stop. Both operations are conducted under Part 91 regulations and will utilize Foreflight Dispatch with Active Navlog and an international trip support handler, flying from KDAL to EDDF.
