Salmon farmer Bakkafrost is still looking for the perfect plane

The timeline for Bakkafrost's airplane purchase has been extended.

Hanus Jacobsen, who heads Bakkafrost's US operations, says it will likely be next summer before the company begins operating its own plane to fly salmon to the US market. Originally, the company suggested the plane would be flying this year.
