Westair Sweden

[CRJ2]

Hello,
does somebody have some information about Westair Sweden?
I did a search in the fourm but I only found threads from 2004/2005...
Is it a good company to work for now?
What are the T&C there?
Where do they have bases for their pilots?
Thanks in advance!

Hey,
I assume you are looking into the CRJ operation.
Right now Oslo is the only base for the CRJ, but be prepared to spend most of the time in Tromsø since both the aircraft are based there.
2 weeks on, 1 off. Also, most of the CRJ pilots are recruited from within the company.
As far as pay goes, i think you will find better deals elsewhere.
Regards,

Thanks for the information.
Do they also employ direct entry captains?
I've about 3000hrs total thereof about 2700hrs on CRJ....
Is there the possibility for a fast upgrading?

I guess the best thing to do is give them a call.
At the moment they are using american/canadian Captains until they have trained enough themselves.
hard to say what the time for upgrade is going to be.
But as I said, doesnt hurt to give them a call:)
