Where are the fractional PR mouthpieces talking about how beneficial the industry is by providing jobs and providing a service the commercial industry can't deliver? Get your execs out there to tell your story before it is framed and told for you.

This story is mostly for the unwashed that read the US Coloring book and rags of the like. This is just eye wash/quasi aviation hit piece to make people think that "the man" is getting stuck finally in these hard economic times.

Rest assured our PR dep is getting the message to the RIGHT folks. Heck, Marquis sales haven't even dropped off.

If we're going to start taking steps backward, lets begin with all departments going back to typewriters instead of computers and instead of PDA's lets get back to sticky notes and pencils.
 
....

Free,

"I believe this will bring a TON of new business for NetJets."..

Not just NJ..... ALL fracs will get a boost from this.

Fly safe!
 
The economy is in the gutter. Pres Bush has an approval rating in the 20s%, congress lower in the 10s%, but Congress gives themselves a $4700/yr pay raise.

And they're worried about how these CEOs get around.

Yea. And if they save that raise for 5 years they'll be able to afford a one trip trip from BOS to TEB on a 400XP> Oooooooh.
 
Anyone who sells a card and has a decent product is going to see some growth in 25 and 50 hour cards. The boys are not going back to the airschytes. They have tasted freedom.:beer:
 
I would like to see these corporations inform the public of how many of our Senators, and Congressmen have used their companies corporate jets.
I know where I am at there are a few of our elected officials in D.C. that accept use of our Gulfstream for getting around. And they just have to pay us back the cost of what an airline ticket would have cost them.

Add on to that....I am sure that the Big Three have loaned their jets out to politicians in the past.....pretty ironic.
 
"we actully have a more efficent business model than the fractionals"

I about blew water out my nose laughin at that one. I think he's trying to turn charter into an airline, that outta turn out well considering his record at usair.

If they are purchasing shares to actually travel, this may be true. Many purchase for the tax benefits however, and those clients fly only when they really need to, writing off the rest as a business expense through depreciation. Those types of customers are bread and butter to fracs. As the economy worsens, the concept of spending money to make money will not be quite the same. Card purchases will be used by a smaller pct of clients, but new aircraft sales are what a fractional needs to sustain growth and economic viability.
