    NJA hiring for 09

    R Surely Mr Buffett has considered his participation with the O campaign to be complementary to his interests in NJA. Oh wait now Mr. B finds he was overly enthusiastic about the fractional business. The more I know the more confused I become!

    What makes a good Corporate Pilot?

    HawkerFO great post I agree. Also JumpJet good but I would add most of the principals will listen to "No" willingly IF it is followed with "but this is what we can do, which option works best for you?"
