    Does XO Jet actually fly their airplanes?

    Actually, I was the one assigned to that aircraft, and yes, to put all myths down - we flew that jet back and forth to Las Vegas on THREE different trips within those 5 days.....all to Signature FS. 2 owner trips and 1 charter. They know us well! I flew 42 hrs on that bird in 7 days. Captain...

    Calculating VDP

    I have NEVER gone around and NEVER will! Just make it work the first time! Fuel is expensive! Don't go-arounds scare passengers? I'd be scared that I'd probably have to do a visual pattern and I don't do those either. I hope some of you are laughing.
