As Norse Atlantic Airways gears up for launch in the second quarter of this year, the Arendal, Norwayheadquarted start-up has “agreed to work together” with flight training provider OSM Aviation Academy, to establish a cadet pilot programme.
The airline states that once it is fully operational, development of the programme will begin in close collaboration with OSM Aviation Academy. At present, Norse plans to use 15 Boeing 787s – of these, six -9s are sourced from BOC Aviation Limited, while the remaining nine examples, consisting of six -9s along with a trio of smaller -8s, would come from AerCap – on transatlantic sorties between Europe and North America.
