It takes moisture in the air to freeze propellers or wings. The air down there is usually very dry. I took part in an expedition to the North Pole, and the planes that flew up there had no problems with icing.
Ice still accumulates, right? ailerons, flaps, hydraulics. Isn't that why planes have a glycol de-icer? Without it, you and the rest would crash and burn? Or never even make it of the runway?
ShaCRaM, did you actually watch the video and understand what he was saying? Of course they will use helicopters, that why they have to wait - build up a camp to support the helis...

Looks like you need to Parachute your way in. Now that's "Extreeeeem style" science work. Thanks for posting. Much appreciated.

The propellers would probably freeze up. Wow, I want to become part of NASA. To bad its not in Canada.
