-No, you will be "core".
“core” is no more. The term previously referred to pilots employed directly by the parent company Norwegian Air Shuttle. I provide a link to a current recruitment ad from Norwegian’s website which includes an email address to enquire directly:

“Successful applicants will be employed by Pilot Services Norway AS (PSN)” - link:

Norwegian’s Scandinavia “pilot services” scheme evolved during the 2015 strike (a strike where Norwegian’s pilots outside of Scandinavia kept flying) - link:

“He [Kjos] says that the pilots' wish to be employees of the parent company, Norwegian Air Shuttle, is not an option."

“The planned new companies (Pilot Services Norway, Pilot Services Denmark, and Pilot Services Sweden) will also reduce the risk of bankruptcy” - and industrial action.

The 5/4 roster and recently improved package was negotiated collectively by the Scandinavian Pilot Services groups who, apparently, are more united and more determined to improve their conditions than their non-Scandinavia counterparts.
