Hey, those are excellent questions.

These days the Norwegian Pilot's union is quite busy resolving the situation that is developing in the company, and I can assure you that permanently employed pilots in the company do not take this lightly.

There is no understanding or agreements between the company and the union as to the exploitation of pilots on temporary contracts. The company has initiated and started this process all by themselves.
The union was neither informed of nor included in the plans to start a new base in HEL or AGP with contracting pilots.

I'd say this development is likely to be challenged by industrial actions in the near future.
But it depends what the company and the union are able to resolve...
