Does XO Jet actually fly their airplanes?

[cherry20's]

You honestly need to get yourself a life. I'm sure you have better things to do than sit and watch an XOJet plane sit for 5 days. Nice bit you put in there about checking with the line guy. Yeah Right! :laugh: By the way did you catch XOJets ad in the WSJ?

That's funny! I have noticed that Capt Dad always starts the threads on XOJET. Maybe he wants a job there? or is scared of a little competition... jk Dad, no flame intended.

There are those that just talk smack and then there are those who try to educate themselves then discuss.

Being the first type makes you look like a fool and gets you nowhere.

I try to fall in with the second group.

As for the Job offer; I would be happy to accept an interview. It would be great to see your operation up close. However, I have doubts that I would be able to accept, for obvious reasons.

Oh come on...

I'm not talking smack, settle down.

I was just kidding. I like inquiring about all aspects of our crazy industry also. I try to know as much as possible about everything going on so I can make an educated decision on where I would like to work next.

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 Dad - you seem to be getting a little worried! Lead, follow, or get out of the way! Everybody will be following us soon enough!!!!

Sorry Cherry, I really didn't mean to imply that you were talking smack. I was just making a general statement.

I tell you, it never ceases to amaze me how people automatically assume when one person talks about someone elses company they think it is a big put down.

I am glad that X wasn't broke. When they first came out they had a bunch of quirks that needed to be ironed out. I was actually excited to possibly run into some XO guys first hand to pick they're brains about the company and get some first hand info.

I try to make a little humorous jab at the new guys and I get jumped. Now who needs to relax?

Geez! "Lead, follow, or get out of the way?" OK.



Good Luck. Fly Safe.

Hmmm...and what was your original idea when you started this thread?????

 

[captain dad]

By the way, does anyone know who has the green gulfstream with the red dice on it. I always see it in vegas. Is it one of the casinos whale fetchers?

 

[Whale Rider]

HAHAHA! Good Man!

Just read. NO hidden agenda. Very simple. Right from the original post.

"What Gives?"

"Just curious."

I was bored and trying to make some simple conversation with the new guys. Why does everything have to be, "I can piss farther than you can!" type banter?

God, lighten up. It was the internet equivalent of "Hi how you doing over there?"

I am truly sorry. I promise not to ever ask what is going on again. Shame on me. I should know better. I was a fool to have ever thought such a thing could be possible in this day and age. Next thing you know, someone will attempt to say hi in person and a fist fight will erupt in the middle of the FBO. God help us.:laugh:

Sorry I couldn't go any further and keep a straight face.

You guys and gals fly safe now. See you up there.

Hey captain dad why don't you get back to talking about that huge announcement that came out for us and all those imaginary benifits I'm going to get and spend less time worring about XOJet. I'm sure we've had our fair share of airplanes sitting on the ramp for days on end.
