Corporate airlines, of Smyrna,TN / j31optr

[climbhappy]

are they still flying the j32s. i see them advertised in trade a plane for sale. they had some lears also. guess they're going all jet?

 

[climbhappy]

let me add, i know there is also corporate aircraft management in smyrna, are the two companies related. CAM had the lears, i know corp air or regions air was the 121 sister company.

They used to be related, now just neighbors.

The CFM Jetstreams are always for sale. I wouldnt take this as an indication they are going all jet. They do a lot of business with the 'Streams.

I have a friend there doing a four day run. Seems like a sweet gig even if it's regional airline pay.

Corporate Airlines is the old name to the new Regions Airlines. Regions operates a fleet of all J32's as a part 121 carrier. I think they have a maint base in smyrna. I also believe that their main base is St. Louis. Have talked to several folks from there, and they all seem nice. From what I hear you top out at 27k as a captain there.

Corporate Flight Management is based out of smyrna and operates a fleet of around 6-7 jetstream 31s and 32s. I believe they also have an Jetstream based out in NJ for a shuttle. They are a part 135 operator. In addition to the j.balls, they also have 3 lear 35s, 1 lear 45, 1 lear 60 and a caravan. I believe they may have had a couple king air 200's as well. Have a friend that works there as a j.ball capt. He brings in around 39k I think. It seems like Corporate Flight Management is a stable place to work.

My understanding is that Corporate Flight Management was the original company, and Corporate Airlines was the sister that split off on there own. After the crash in Kirksville, Corporate Airlines changed their name to Regions. (Don't know if the crash had anything to do with the name change?) I heard a rumor that Regions may be getting some Saab 340's. Hope any of this helps.
