They also have a big base at MAD.
They normally hire what we call in spanish "los enchufadisimos" (ou les pistonés de gros calibres
).
They have an agreement with AEROMADRID ATPL studients, who are willing to pay for type rating and then go to Swiftair (for 6 months or 500 hrs).
They do hire foreigners, and some french are flying there, but it is only because they are captains, and it is nowdays very difficult to find ATR captains available on the market !
Otherwise it must be a nice place to work, I have a friend there and he seems to really enjoy himself.
They also do PAX flights (Charters, and flights to bring africans back in their country).
