Not wanting to start a FI food fight but, if you're going on the similarity to current tail numbers for a certain operator, you're off base.

I've heard from one who knows (who isn't on this board) that there is no 650 coming for Simon Aviation. (And my friend is happy because he doesn't want to go to another school... )

Yeah, he may go grudgingly but not kicking and screaming.

[semperfido]

I'd gladly go, if we were getting one.

Wal-Mart is getting number 8.

Wal-Mart is getting number 8.

Leaving the Global for the G650. Certainly more capable from a range/speed standpoint. Good for those pilots!

 

[Fly91]

Carnival Cruise lines gets there's too........not exactly sure when.

I heard type costs are gonna be $95,000 per pilot......how pathetic.

Should be the first of a couple in KFTW in about a year.[/

Where in ftw

Training contract

A company I know is making their pilots and mechanics sign a four (yes I said four) year training contract when they get theirs in a few months.

They should....$95,000 type-rating. Last thing we need are dirtbag pilots getting types and then leaving in 3 months......making the industry suck for the rest of us.

 

[Cat3C]

kinda BS when, from my experience with new aircraft purchases, it is a negotiated item for pilot and maintenance training so really no skin off of the nose. YMMV

 

[Gulfstream 200]

I also know, from a cousins friend who is taking delivery of one next month, that such opportunities come with a price...

They are not only requiring a 4 year training contract, but they require that you toss your first born through #1 engine inlet as a sacrifice to the mighty Grumman gods.

BTW school is also closer to $165,000. What would you expect from such a bird?

So your solution to dirtbags making the industry suck for the rest of us is to make the industry suck for the rest of us by making everyone sign a training contract?!?!?!?! For fuc&'s sake. If that's the way you'd run a department, please, for the sake of the industry, remove yourself from consideration from managing the two G-IV's and leave it to someone who will...I don't know....attempt to MAKE THE JOB NOT WORTH LEAVING IN THREE MONTHS instead of making all of your employees indentured servants.

 

[Hugh Johnson]

I'm sure that's a bunch of crap. Factory purchases come with 3 type ratings and 2 maintenance training evolutions.

 

[CWGrizwald]

True

I'm sure you are wrong.
