Netjets G200 Question

[T-1GUY]

I would appreciate any insight to the G200 world at Netjets. Can you also fill me in as to the Avionics setup?

Thanks,

Future Bro

It's a real nice looking airplane..... Collins avionics.

No heated wing, only boots.

What else you wanna know about it?

That's so stupid boots on a jet. Who'd thunk it?

And yet that trend continues with the new G150, except on that plane, the boots are painted a silver/grey color so as to not look so obvious.

 

[T-1GUY]

What type of collins setup??

 

[NJA bound]

Saw a new 150 in DAL, nice looking plane, shorter fuselage and bigger engines, supposed to be a hot one, heard they're on order.

Just make sure you call it what it is: Galaxy. Calling that underpowered, boot-winged, stumpy-legged POS a Gulfstream is an affront to all of aviation.

Gutshot - Where's all that hostitity coming from bro?? You should be going to Fiji w/ my neighbor to chill out and put down a few Bitters!

G200 is a lot more comfortable and spacious up front vs. the X or the Sovereign. I'd say you got a good choice for the longer transcon flights. Not sure how much it flies - it isn't as busy as the X fleet. Good job on getting the G200.

I sure hope it flys better than it looks.

Pro line 4 with UNS1's..

Never had a problem in the ice accum or the operation of the boots

Fiji? I thought Fiji was just the name of the water that we stock on our aircraft, I didn't know it was an actual place! I suppose NetJets just has the G200s or Falcons come back with a couple of cases every time they go over there!

The thing flies nice, good avionics. Not sure where all the hostility from Gutshot is coming from, maybe it is something in the water over there at NJI.

Our new 200 (just sold our early SN) is due to be delivered December and it has the silver boots. I appreciate the extra thrust during climb in icing conditions that we wouldn't have with heated wings. May not be much, but
every little bit helps.

Gutshot should keep in mind that "Gulfstreams" started life as Grummans. If he is concerned about a manufacturer's corporate name and reputation, that first change should be considered.

Over the years, various lines of aircraft have been associated with the name from the American Yankee light airplanes through an agricultural bi-plane to the Aero Commander turbine line. This too will pass.

Oh and that water we drink at NJI? It makes us more sophisticated. We pick our noses with our pinky fingers.
