Contacted Ásgeir Páll S: 8981998. He is foreman of the rescue team Jökull on the east coast of Iceland. He is interested to get the data package if it land on north east highlands. His first guess for cost for this project is +- 100.000 per day for one car and two - three people. Of course the price depends a lot where it land, on glacier or near some roads on the highlands. For further information about it you may contact me: Bogi Kárason. 

The name of house guard in Höfðatorg is Albert S:6618467

He said it will be no problem if we want to drop something of the roof for testing. The height of building is 74 m. Contact him one day before we want to do the test.

h2. Research and Design

Bogi, Örvar and Vikar made a test on the release mechanism.

The results from test:

-If it is windy the fabrics flap a lot and can damage the balloon.

-The coses did not fit together as we expected so we could not zip two fabric together.

-Have to find another way, f.x find large house and fill the balloon inside.
