If you can find the movie / documentary "Ice Eagles" watch it

Ran into this tonight on Roku / "Watch Free Flix" or Tubi. The story of Richard Byrd in Antarctica and the exploration mostly by aircraft up into "modern times." Just incredible.



Also shown was the colossal and failed "snow cruiser" which were "going to be used" to cruise around the snow in comfort while hauling an aircraft on top. They could not get out of their own way
