Yeah, god forbid the owners actually get on an airplane that has a good track record, faster, flies higher, carries more, made in the US, etc,etc.. But you are right, we are all full of it and you are not pipe dreaming that your company is doing just fine, this is all a smoke screen by Santo, he is the best CEO that ever lived and will guide you to eternal profitability.
I found the forum MJ posted to be very interesting, nothing that was not already known though...

Looks like I just found a REAL avantair-owner forum:

http://avantairowners.freeforums.net/index.cgi?board=general&action=display&thread=1&page=1

Reading through the first and last page there, owners are NOT happy, many wanting to get rid of their shares.

So the Avantair owners opinion's should NOT be included in this discussion about Avantair's financial stability? Wow, what else is off limits?

Why is that, Gator? That forum is public info which can be accessed without being a member / having a password.

I do believe that a login/password IS needed for flightinfo, yet from reading on that forum, they know what is going on right here. In the end, it is all open info which can be found with a simple Google search.

As for the current pilots on here saying that all is well at Avantair, the reality is that flying your ass off does NOT equal to profitability. I for one will be looking forward to AAIR earnings report.

PS: Gator, please don't accuse me of volunteering my login/password to this forum next.

Recently,the company raised 7.5 million from its investor group made up of a very impressive group of investors. All of whom manage money to make their living. They don't throw money away and certainly are not "morons"

From that owner forum mentioned above:

"2. Many of the planes currently off-line have been cannibalized for parts, and that it's a $15+ million proposition to get the entire fleet back where it needs to be."

IF that info is true, there goes your 7.5 million towards half of that problem that obviously needs to get fixed to get operations back to normal.

How many of these things have had maint issues lately?? Is it just me or does it seem crazy that anyone would want anything to do with this outfit?
 
Its just you. No gear collapsed. It was a test flight. No damage. I actually am a pilot at Avantair. Why do you guys create this drama?

These guys were happy to do business with you

Comical, I don't work for Jetsuite pal, nice try though. I don't think Jetsuite has cj3's on the west coast. Don't fly 135 either, these are your guys whom have bought equity in the airframes.
I'm sure Jetsuite is poaching a lot of your customers on the east coast too though.
You should look into flying there, as far as I've heard they actually don't bounce their paychecks...Pay is pretty crappy there I think but you are used to that.
I also find it humorous that you would post a link to an accident when avantair has had several high profile pilot error accidents/incidents. Why would you want to draw attention to that? Good luck, you are going to need it.

Something I noticed from that fractrade website, avantair has pretty high monthly fees. $13,000 for a 1/16th share. Every other company is less, and for larger airplanes
