Hook BRZINAIR or Brznair, is a Fortis based Regional and limited international carrier mostly providing airline service in the Baskay coastal zone and Veiid. The airline is the only Fortis based carrier offering international flights, and even then only on a limited basis, with most international flights to Fortis handled by other carriers flying out of West Hook International and Laythi Honor International Airport in Fedithe.

Hook BRZNIAR's main hub is at the West Hook International Airport, servicing West Hook Island.

History

HOOK Brznair was founded in 2160 upon the opening of West Hook International Airport, which had then recently been built on the grounds of the relocated West Hook AFB (Now West Hook Naval and Aerostation, located some miles west). The Airline rapidly grew as the need for air-services returned to the economically recovering Laythian and Troakian territories in Fortis, and is the only native regional carrier operating in Fortis to offer full meal service on all flights.

Accidents and Incidents

HKB441

On January 7th, 2163, Flight HKB-441 between Zerban and Fedithe suffered a rapid decompression after a service panel blew out on the aft end of the aircraft, a FHI W-2022-100 Comforjet. The panel blowout caused internal damage, rapidly depressurizing the aircraft at altitude, forcing the aircraft to lower altitude and place a mayday call, delaying multiple flights into Laythi Honor International as the aircraft was placed on priority for landing. Two passengers died from High-altitude pulmonary edema after their oxygen masks failed due to improper servicing. Hook Brznair, wishing to avoid a lawsuit, settled out of court with the next of kin. The panel blowout was investigated internally by the company and found to be the result of improper training practices by ground crews servicing the carrier in Zerban. The ground crew servicing the aircraft had improperly affixed speedtape to the panel. Furthermore, the on-board emergency air system had been erroneously signed off as properly serviced by both the ground crew and the crew due to a miscommunication. Those responsible however were not found liable and were instead ordered into retraining. Multiple policies were taken by the company to avoid a future incident.
