Flexjet

I agree, facts are all people are looking for. We all know that marketing likes to "twist" the facts a little bit.
Unfortunately, Bombardier doesn't release fleet totals very often. (None listed on Flexjets' website)
Flex reported a total of 41 aircraft to NBAA in 1998.
In 2003, they reported 104 to AIN.
Today the FAA registry lists 85.

Word on the BH street is that NJA lost over $180 MM last year. Too bad they don't have to report their financials.

Word I hear is over $200 million in profit 2004.

85 planes

When I left 3 years ago they had 84 planes. How many do you have now? (85)

I was scheduled to work 161 days last year how about you? (about 210)

"Flexjet QOL sucked then and it sucks now." That's a quote from one of my former coworkers when I asked him how Flex is doing.

flexlrpilot357 is in the wrong business, should have been a cheer leader!
