Photograph of southern tip of Greenland, taken by Peter Free on 28 May 2017, during commercial 747 overflight.

 

 

This picture of Greenland's southern tip was taken on 28 June 2017, at roughly midday. I was grateful for the in-progress flight map that the airline provides on each seat back. And happy when the weather cooperated.

 

Curiously, almost none of the 747's passengers tried to see the view, even the ones in window seats. Trails of ice floes and bergs flowed south. Spectacular.
