In an emailed statement, Capt. Bernard Lewall, chair of the WestJet Master Executive Council of the Airline Pilots Association, International, said Thomson was a driven and strong leader, and a role model for younger women in aviation.
“Words cannot begin to describe the sense of devastation, grief, and profound loss which now envelops the WestJet pilot group, with the tragic passing of Captain Christina Thomson,” the statement reads.
“Her life will leave an indelible mark on all those fortunate to have met her. In addition to her professional successes, she had the unique ability to make everyone she crossed paths with feel like they were her closest friend.”
