1545 miles to go - closing in on Oshkosh

After being grounded for four days in Greenland due weather, slot requirements and no fuel I finally decided to go straight to Goose Bay with no extra fuel to play with. Airtime 07:49 h, when I landed I still had fuel for another 01:40 h. Calculating conservative is always good, when I landed TS were acting around the airport.
Strong headwinds from now on towards Oshkosh, but will make it on time - easy! 1545 miles to go - that was this afternoon.

Slot requirements and no fuel? Is that at the new BGQO/Qaqortoq? I know Bluie West One is closed, but, this new Narsarsuaq airport doesn't sound like an improvement...

7:49 enroute sounds exhausting; I didn't think that'd be possible even with 57 gallons... nice job!
