Challenger & Global Order. New planes for who?

[gunfyter]

Art,

I think if anyone knew who was getting the Globals ... the beans would have been spilled here by now. It must not be a Frax....

OK OK JonJuan says he knows ...

 

[Inigo Montoya]

It certainly looks to me like the beans are spilled already

6 Globals and esp 2 Challengers couldn't be enough for a company the size of NJA to start a new fleet type. Heck FR says we'd need at least 5 or 6 Globals at Flex to make it work. Netjets doesn't do anything half-assed so I don't see them doing this to put their toes in the water and feel the market, they're either all in or nothing. IF these are for Netjets they're either going to EJA, NJME, or a new China operation as managed aircraft. And managed aircraft is probably the only way we'll see Globals at Flex in the near future. That's just my opinion, I could be wrong.

They do have the Gulfstream fleet as an additional backup however

Can we please get back to the topic at hand: How Flexjet is going to blow its own head off by selling globals to netjets...

OK, first of all, FlexJet doesn't sell airplanes to anyone. They "buy" them just like CitationAir "buys" their jets from Cessna. FlexJet has absolutely NO say on who buys Challengers and Globals so please don't kid yourself and try to make it sound like FlexJet has any power whatsoever.

You also may want to consider the future of Flex...


Just sayin'

That was very well thought out, thank you cause I wasn't aware.
