Recaro Aircraft Seating has made 80 gaming chairs in SAS design to mark the airline's 80th birthday.

The seat maker said the Recaro Nxt chairs come in a special edition, one for each year since the Scandinavian carrier was founded in 1946. They are in SAS's characteristic blue, with the airline's logos embroidered on the headrest and the back, and are intended for SAS employees as part of the anniversary events.

Recaro and SAS have worked together on aircraft seats for some time. SAS says the airline carries more than 25 million passengers a year to 135 destinations.
