Saskatoon airline West Wind grounds fleet during investigation

If you’re planning to jet out of town on a West Wind flight, you might want to check your ticket.

The Saskatoon-based airline confirmed Wednesday it has voluntarily grounded its fleet pending the results of an investigation into “potential administrative discrepancies related to training records.”

“West Wind will utilize its wholly-owned subsidiary, Transwest Air, and industry partners to ensure safe, uninterrupted services to its customers until this matter is concluded,” said Dennis Baranieski, the company’s vice-president of business development and customer relations, in a statement.

Baranieksi told 650 CKOM it’s not known when exactly the airline will resume operations, adding the company is “focusing on the results, not the timeline.”
