Wierd-ass but supercool logo

I caught a glimpse of this really wierd airline logo at CDG the other day. Check it out on the tails:

I guess it's partly explained by the fact that it seems to be an Icelandic company - you know, viking helmet... One cool thing is that the logo is skewed to fit the tail depending on which side it's on. But what the hell is that dot?!

Actually, h-flipped, not skewed.

I see the viking too, but i also see genghis kahn. the dot does flip it around too. without the dot it looks more 'viking' and less 'genghis'.

You see a viking helmet. I see Genghis Kahn.

And that dot is an eye.

It looks like the viking's eye to me, the descender being the face/cheek.
