to current environmental protection regulations, planned landing and
helicopter operations, base camp set-up, dates of operation, and operating
plans. The updated document has received signatorial approval of the Norsk
Polar Institute. Our amateur radio license with the call sign 3Y0Z has also
been renewed and will be used during the Bouvet DXpedition 2018.

An international team of pilots has been selected to serve as an interface
between the DXpedition team and the DX audience worldwide. They are your
