Description
A genuine piece of the real aircraft after is was scrapped.
We are very happy to bring you a real Viking home today: Gudrod Viking.
In September 2001, the Airbus A340-300 with the Manufacturer's Serial Number (MSN) 424 was registered as SE-REB and delivered to SAS Scandinavian Airlines. After only two months in flight service, the airline re-registered the aircraft to LN-RKG, christened it Gudrod Viking and flew to San Francisco, Tokyo and Los Angeles, among other destinations.
From April to October 2019, a very special sticker adorned the aircraft: "Mao Sun" and "Xing Er", two pandas from Copenhagen Zoo, greeted passengers with the inscription "Welcome to Copenhagen".
Gudrod Viking – like SAS's entire Airbus A340 fleet – was retired in March 2020 after 19 years of service. Since then, the aircraft has been waiting to be recycled in Castellón, Spain, before the Viking headed north for Aviationtag!
