MSØINT - Flannan Isles
18-06-2010
Submitted by: ON5EX
Activated in 1989, 1995, 1999 and 2002, the mysterious Flannan Isles are certainly a much needed IOTA. Extremely difficult to access due to North Atlantic weather systems constantly eroding the only two available landing sites, a determined international group of IOTA enthusiasts intend to activate the Flannan Isles between June 18 – 21, 2010. Weather/seas permitting, the activation will be attempted by a multinational operators team. With a little over 12 weeks to go before this tricky IOTA activation, the team would like to remind enthusiasts to visit the MSØINT website for more details on the expedition and how you can support/assist them. QSL direct or through buro.
