Back in 2011, Air Greenland already ordered two EC225 to replace its two aging S-61's, but the contract was cancelled in 2014, only to be renewed again in 2019. In due course, two 2nd hand EC225 were delivered to Air Greenland in 2020, one of them being OY-HUW formerly operated as LN-OJM by CHC Norway. Both are reported to have been refurbished and re-equipped by Heli-One Poland from the Oil & Gas configuration for SAR duties. Both EC225 are based in Kangerlussuaq with the goal of one always being on duty like OY-HUW in this picture, visible on the installed rescue hoist.
