Original Aircraft Skin / Aviationtag / A330-200 Air Greenland OY-GRN
Discover the extraordinary story of the Aviationtag X Air Greenland Norsaq Edition – a piece of aviation history that transcends its role as an aircraft and embodies the essence of Greenlandic connection and adventure.
Norsaq, an Airbus A330-200 with the registration OY-GRN and MSN 230, was originally delivered to Sabena in 1998 before joining Air Greenland's fleet in 2002. Serving as a vital link between Greenland and Denmark for over two decades, Norsaq has not only transported passengers but has become a symbol of shared experiences and a conduit for countless adventures.
From charter trips to southern Europe to facilitating the participation of Greenlandic athletes in international events, Norsaq's legacy is rich with diverse journeys. It has even hosted live bands, witnessed weddings, and remained a cherished symbol of travel for generations in Greenland.
With 41,364 flying hours and 10,112 take-offs and landings, Norsaq found its final resting place on March 12, 2023, concluding a remarkable chapter. As part of its farewell journey to Arizona, Air Greenland orchestrated a special flight, making a unique loop over Nuuk, Greenland's capital, bidding a poignant goodbye.
