IN FLIGHT – APRIL 21: From an altitude of 500 feet The International Ice Patrol flies over the north Atlantic searching for icebergs every other week during iceberg season, which is from February to July. The crew records the iceberg’s shape, size and location in an effort to prevent collisions between ships and icebergs.
