Which still makes Greenland safe. If neither side can get off the ground or convince their planes that they're in the air.

You understand that the Danish Airforce is Greenland's Airforce right? The Danish military is the official military of Greenland with an explicit agreement between the home rule parliament and the Danish Defence. Other than that all Greenlanders are danish citizens and are the danish state is obligated to defend them.

I guess the point was that planes are similarly useless/useful in both sides.
