Wideroe - a subsidiary of Norwegian - has leased two De Havilland Dash 8-400 aircraft from regional aircraft lessor TrueNoord. The two 2013 vintage aircraft are on an operating lease and formed part of TrueNoord's latest portfolio acquisition from NAC.
"Turboprops continue to play a vital role in connecting remote communities through the right sizing of capacity to meet demand, their inherent reliability, and operating cost benefits," said TrueNoord sales director Europe Michael Adams. "TrueNoord is delighted to add Widerøe as a customer, expanding our Dash 8-400 portfolio with the Nordic region’s largest operator of regional aircraft."
"Widerøe recognises the professional support TrueNoord has provided through the novation of these two Dash 8-400s, which has been seamless," said Wideroe director of aircraft trading Werner Skaue.
