Keflavik Base Area anno 2014
Major Jose Peltier and Lt. Col. Kevin Chaney, I believe this was your plane ?
Friday 28th February, members of the Saga Trail Association were invited by representative of Tourism in Keflavik community (Reykjanesbær), on a VIP sightseeing around the former Nato Base aria at Keflavik Airport.
When we were shown the bunker with this beautiful plane, I felt like I was taking part in "Top Gun", just waiting for a young version of Tom Cruse to join us :). At the conference we used a couple of hours to brainstorm about the possibilities that Reykjanesbær community has to make use of the old Nato Base Aria. We found these endless and exciting ….
Ragnheiður Elín Árnadóttir, Iceland's minister of Industry and Commerce, joined us and signed an agreement between Saga Trail and Inspired by Iceland.
Of course Ragnheiður got the first example of the silver Saga trail necklace, given to her by Sigurður Ingi from Sign.
Thanks to Vikingaheimar whom hosted us, and thanks to our hosts and guides from Reykjanesbær commune (Keflavík).
