Shield Vert, a propeller Argent in bend sinister, flanked in chief by a postal horn Or and in base by two mushrooms Or.
Meaning:
The horn is reminding on the 1st German Air Mail service, which started in Borkheide on 18 February 1912. The propeller is also alluding to the local construction of motors and aeroplanes. The company was established by Hans Grade, a pilot and engineer. The mushrooms are considered to be canting and are alluding to the local heather landscape.
