I still don't think that all 184 pilots (crewing eight aircraft) will be on contracts, and even less I think so in three years time from now when they are free from their bonds.

The question for everyone at this stage is therefore how much one wants to gamble. Do one think NLH will offer employment, and if so where (what base) and when, and under what t&c? If so, who will be offered employment since there is no seniority list in NLH (it can be seen as an up to three year trail period)?

You can note the difference in 737 Norwegian ops where pilots employed ("core") have very good conditions (I would say much better than for example SAS) compared to them on contract. As I understand, pilots are offered employment in the order they started on a contract, correct?

However, unfortunately none of us know about the future. We just have to make our bets.
