  1. Beautiful weather for takeoff from Keflavik International airport in Reykjavík area (Iceland) “BIKF 211330Z 07022KT CAVOK 01/M04 Q1002” : See what it means on bigorre.org/aero/meteo/bikf/en #keflavikinternationalairport #airport #reykjavik #iceland #bikf #kef #metar #aviation #aviationweather #avgeek vl

  2. It looks like IcelandAir removed Hekla Aurora #TFFIU from service early. It didn't fly at all Friday, after being pulled from Flight 665 to Portland PDX. Saturday is the only day remaining before the Sunday retirement event, a sold-out sightseeing flight originating from and returning to Reykjavik's Domestic Airport #RKV / #BIRK in downtown. (Usually the big jets operate from Keflavik Int'l Airport #KEF / #BIKF about 50km/30mi west of the city.) flightaware.com/live/flight/TF #aviation #travel #avgeek

  7. #Avgeek alert: Icelandair flew their 757-200 special livery "Vatnajökull" from Reykjavik #KEF / #BIKF today on a ferry flight number to Kansas City #MCI / #KMCI. The airframe TF-FIR doesn't have a return flight scheduled. All of Icelandair's 757s are planned for retirement by Spring 2026. So it may have been retired or sold. But MCI isn't a boneyard. (Ping @User47 - see if you or other MCI area avgeeks can get pictures.) [confirmed retired by MBL news.] flightaware.com/live/flight/TF #aviation #travel

  17. Planespotting at Portland Int'l Airport #PDX / #KPDX this evening: still photos of IcelandAir 757-200 "Hekla Aurora" arriving from Reykjavik / Keflavik Int'l Airport #KEF / #BIKF. This one-of-a-kind livery depicting the Aurora Borealis above Icelandic volcano Hekla has been an avgeek favorite for 10 years. The plane will be retired soon - rumors say October. #aviation #travel #avgeek #PNW

  22. Planespotting from home this evening: IcelandAir's "Vatnajökull" 757-200 (named for Iceland's largest glacier) arriving at Portland Int'l Airport #PDX / #KPDX from Reykjavik's Keflavik Int'l Airport #KEF / #BIKF. All of IcelandAir's 757s are scheduled to be retired by 2026. So I've been trying to catch each of the two with special liveries when I can. Portland is the longest route currently flown by IcelandAir, and so almost always gets a 757. #aviation #travel #avgeek #PNW

  47. Hekla Aurora 757 of @IcelandAir is an #avgeek favorite one-of-a-kind livery. I got pictures of it arriving this afternoon from Reykjavik #KEF / #BIKF at Portland Int'l #PDX / #KPDX. It's only been a few weeks since we saw aurora over the Columbia River, this time on a plane. #aviation #travel
