It was established as a merger in 1977. It has about 850 members,[1] and has its headquarters in Drammensveien at Skillebekk, Oslo.[2] It is a member body of the International Federation of Air Line Pilots' Associations, IFALPA.[1]

Civil airlines pilots in Norway have also been members of the Confederation of Vocational Unions due to dissatisfaction with the Norwegian Airline Pilots Association.[3] However, in 2016, the union affiliated to the Norwegian Confederation of Trade Unions. The following year, it absorbed the Norwegian Cockpit Union.[4]
