Flapsforty,
the news you are referring to concerns the ground staff.
A project group is still working on how to resolve the redundancy among ground staff, and will present their results in the beginning of May.

Regarding flight and cabin crew the story is different. So far the only job losses after the Braathens buy have been among SAS/SAS Commuter personell. And these reductions come as a direct result of SAS-owned airlines taking over previously SAS/SC-operated routes. This wednesday 31 new pilots in SC was fired, bringing us up to a total of 48 so far. 43 more will have to go before the end of the year.

Braathens have actually reduced their numbers of redundant pilots and cabin crew after the buy, due to increased scheduled and charter production.
