Air Greenland operates a diverse fleet of aircraft and helicopters, rangeing from the single engine AS350 Airbus Helicopter up to the Airbus A330 airliner. Helicopters always played a vital role in connecting and supplying Greenland's remote communities. In 1996, Air Greenland started to introduce a sole AS-350B2, moving to the more powerful AS-350B3 in 2003. Of a total of 15 delivered AS350B3's so far, nine remain in service at the time of upload, including OY-HGT shown here. In June 2019, this 2007 built airframe was involved in an accident but subsequently rebuilt. This photo is copyright © Adrian Romang, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
