[greed]

All I want for the new year is a recall....

I hope you and everyone else get good news soon.

Why would Flexjet be singled out here as the target of doom and gloom? Surely all the fractionals would be affected by this 'quote'. What is your source, please?

 

[rsm]

I would assume all fractionals would be affected. Just a personal though no facts.

I heard Ferris passed out at 31 flavors last night. Maybe I should start trolling FBOs with a "Save Flexjet" can...

Rich people tightening their belts? Funniest thing I've read on here in a while.

From a Congregational Research Service Report September 14, 2012:

"Throughout the late-1940s and 1950s, the top marginal tax rate was typically above 90%; today it is 35%. Additionally, the top capital gains tax rate was 25% in the 1950s and 1960s, 35% in the 1970s; today it is 15%. The real GDP growth rate averaged 4.2% and real per capita GDP
increased annually by 2.4% in the 1950s. In the 2000s, the average real GDP growth rate was 1.7% and real per capita GDP increased annually by less than 1%. There is not conclusive evidence, however, to substantiate a clear relationship between the 65-year steady reduction in the
top tax rates and economic growth. Analysis of such data suggests the reduction in the top tax rates have had little association with saving, investment, or productivity growth. However, the top tax rate reductions appear to be associated with the increasing concentration of income at the top of the income distribution. The share of income accruing to the top 0.1% of U.S. families increased from 4.2% in 1945 to 12.3% by 2007 before falling to 9.2% due to the 2007-2009 recession. The evidence does not suggest necessarily a relationship between tax policy with regard to the top tax rates and the size of the economic pie, but there may be a relationship to how the economic pie is sliced."

Like I'm going to give a name on here. I thought it was a little obvious but, the "L" word is what was mentioned. The sustainability of un-crewed aircraft is bound to catch up to the drain and I'm betting the drain is REAL close. Airplanes do not make money sitting somewhere for weeks on end, it's simple math. On a side note, tree boy spotted amongst smarter chimps in redwood forest.

Doyle, thought you retired some time back. What makes you feel compelled to write your clap-trap on this board....does it make you feel important or something?

A friend of mine knows a guy who saw someone who heard from a lineman that Ms. White may have been seen landing in CMH. But my cousins neighbor's third grade techer's son-in-laws college rommate saw her going into the FO building in Cleveland at the same time. And at the same very moment, I read that she was meeting with XOJet's former executives.

Wow - 3 sightings at the same time.

All part of the Rothschild/Bildenburger conspiracy, don't you know. If you don't agree, it is because you are covering up, you are part of the conspiracy.

It's not claptrap. Voluntary separation for pilots being offered at Flex.
