Clinton presented a presented an Antarctic airway chart to the country of New Zealand. The airway chart was created by Col. Ronald Smith, commander of Operation Deep Freeze from 2005 to 2008, and currently the Air National Guard advisor to the Air Mobility Command Director of Strategic Plans, Requirements and Programs at Scott Air Force Base, Ill. The chart shows “Airway 338” waypoints with each waypoint named after sled dog teams of Roald Amundsen and the pony pack team of British Capt. Robert Falcon Scott. The aeronautical chart is used in international flight navigation from New Zealand to Antarctica -- especially for Operation Deep Freeze.
