On the airport at Unalakleet Total flying time from Golovin to Unalakleet is 1.5 hours. We don't fly direct across Norton Sound (too much cold water below), but more along the coastline to the east and then south. Jack says in the winter people cross the sound by snowmobile or ATV. During this flight we see what appears to very light snow flakes, but otherwise no weather problems. The Unalakleet airport is located right next to the water and we make a straight-in approach landing to the south. On final approach, we pass through some light rain showers to make the landing more interesting.
