SAS Visit

Mattias Hedrén, CEO SAS Link, visited Skellefteå to meet our students and potential future SAS pilots. I am very proud to work with one of the world’s safest airlines with high standards for its pilots. It means great opportunities for our students after graduation but also incredibly important for our future development.

Mattias also talked to our students about the importance of good leadership as a pilot.
An open and humble approach where understanding that you are part of a team, where everyone is important, is crucial for safe and efficient operation.
