So what do you need for an arctic flight?

Well, if you're crossing the Hudson or Davis Straits, get an immersion suit and wear it! The photo at left shows Rahul Monga in his suit after crossing Davis Strait in a CT Designs ultralight, as part of a 'round the world trip.

The Canadian Aviation Regulations (CARS) no longer specify a long list of equipment required for flights in northern Canada.  You can see the regulations on survival equipment and flotation devices required to be carried by clicking this link.

We recommend this article from the Canadian Owners and Pilots Association for details and suggestions on what to bring. And keep in mind, it can get pretty cold up here, even in the summer.
