One would expect Widerøe pilots, who operate in such windshear-prone conditions to be better prepared.
They are. Widerøde operates in very challenging conditions in between high mountains.

Windshear, turbulence and mountain rotors are a real threat, and all you can do when **** happens is doing the best you can to recover.

Some times the odds are not on your side.
