CitationAir How Much Longer

[doylehargraves]

I knew there would be consolidation but I never thought it would be you guys. Sorry to hear it. I hope the fractional model can stay alive. It seems the rich folk are still gun shy about the economy. Hopefully, we can get some spending under control and turn this thing around.

Sorry to hear this. Looks like it's going to get worse before it gets better.

Any idea what brought this on at this time

I'll break my own admonition and spread a rumor. It has been said that we were placed on the chopping block by Cessna so that NJA would make a large order.

This sucks. I have two friends there. What the hell do they do now?

I could see that under the RTS days but not so much now. I don't really think Cessna is in the running for the coming mid cabin order.

Whatever the cause it sucks. Have friends on that side of the fence.

Sent from the great abyss

1- VERY sorry to hear that

2- Sad some are already blaming Netjets for this... whether its a fractional downsizing or a flight department closing, "musted been because of freaking netjets".... the other fracs are innocent bystanders

Been saying that for about 30 years now...

Time will tell but I haven't heard anything about NJ spending money on new airframes built in the US.

Would have been easier to paint the CS tail numbers to QS and color new stripes than shut it down, IMHO.

I pray that better doors are opened for the pilot group.

GOOBS and BOGO

First, very sorry to hear the news.

This is what happens when you have inept management dumbasses who employ Wall Street shell game strategies to run a company.

Now someone will be getting good deals on used aircraft, and many hundreds of pilots will be changing jobs involuntarily.

Isnt this anathema to what is so wrong with our economy right now?

Good luck to all affected by this. But hey, really lets be honest. Didnt we see this coming ??? Hell yes.
