Westair has a surplus of pilots and Amapola recieved a lot of F50 pilots from the Skyways downsize.
So, all in all, no joy.

Other than that, I believe roster is stable at both firms, with both of them mainly into night-freight.

Westair / Amapola T&C

Westair has a previous poster mentioned a surplus right now and Amapola has hired quite a few recently but might have enough for the moment. Amapola pilots don't get so much hours a year but it's, think about 300-400h.

For westair i'm not sure about the roster but they get the ATP-rating and paid from beginning with about 2100 euro per month (ARN base), nothing per diem but paid for nights away from base.
For amapola you'd get F50 rating with a 18 month bonding with T&C according to union deal, FO starting salary about 2100euro(22092SEK) a month and extras for each shift and nights away. Pm for more details, got the union deal here in front of me.

So as you can see not the big bucks but not the worst deal in the market either, especially in Sweden where there's heaps of pilot eager to work.

/FO in fellow company, same owner as Amapola
