No, I do not know what you are missing.

please don't get all worked up over this: this newsgroup is
populated by a majority of americans (or folks like me having
moved there); the fact that some folks even *know* that your
island exist -- even if they might confuse it with some other
parts and get a few facts wrong like location, population,
history, etc -- is already something you'd be really happy
about, a good base for further discussion (I suspect pilots
have heard about Iceland as a convenient place to refuel on
the way across the Atlantic on the northern route :-) -- don't
get me started on the subject, I don't remember how many times
I have had to explain that I don't come from Swaziland (and how
many times my snail mail transits through this probably
really fine but completely out of the way country) :-)

Thank you, and I did not get at all worked up over this, the ignorance
of some people just never fails to amaze me.

what kind of GA flying do you guys do out there in Iceland?

All kinds if the weather allows, you can look at some of the activity
he www.geirfug.is or www.flugheimur.is
among others.

hey, it's on my list of places where I really would like
to go eventually (on my way across the pond)
