Thunder the Bison

Introducing Thunder, the Bison. Thunder embodies the spirit of the American frontier and serves as a symbol of conservation awareness. Listed as near threatened, the bison's presence on our tail reminds us of the importance of protecting these iconic animals. Once roaming the vast plains of North America in immense herds, bison populations have dramatically declined due to habitat loss, hunting, and other human activities. By featuring Thunder on our aircraft tail, we aim to raise awareness about the conservation efforts needed to ensure the bison's survival and its habitat. The name Thunder pays homage to one of our older liveries that retired in 2023, Thunder the Bison A320 N207FR.
