Can you provide a list of names of airports on the opposite coastline of Antarctica? And why can't Google Maps display satellite photos or views on the south pole, when it can clear be seen using Google Earth Pro? Makes no sense at all!

Unfortunately, Google Maps cannot display a location right on the poles, so (as of 2007-12-17) there's no map or satellite picture available for the South Pole Station.

The NDB listed has not existed on station since sometime prior to 2000.
Ski-way is a safe area on the Glacier used only for critical med-evac flights.
Ski-way is not established until needed, no markings in place.
Station does monitor 118.1 MHz
