Flt Depts in NE

[CCDiscoB]

I posted this deep in another thread, so I'm going to rewrite it.

Do any of you guys know of any Fortune 500 Flt Departments in the New England area. I'm hoping to break into the world of corporate flying, but can't move to NYC, yet.

Thanks for any info. Fly Safe.

CCDiscoB:
You need to be more specific. What area of the NE? State? City? Particular airport? Type of equipment?

There are too many to list.

Info

Check a current NBAA Membership Guide and cross reference against the F500 link I sent you earlier.

There are plenty in the North East. Not sure specifically about New England...

Probably find some insurance companies up there...

Don't quote me but when I was in Hartford years ago for the CASS, (Corporate Aviation Safety Seminar), I met an AETNA pilot who was based nearby. He was flying a Falcon 2000 for around 6 figures a year.

Good luck...

yup,
Aetna canned the entire department just recently (contract guys on the S76 only guys left)
too bad......
Im sure the Falcon guys found some work in the area, lots of stuff out there...

Surprised

Gulfstream 200,

NS!! didn't hear about that!! Most of the companies I've worked for use Aetna as our primary health insurer. Any information on why they shut down ops?

Hope its not due to questionable accoundting practices!!

I appreaciate the info but I have to reply to Gulfstream 200.

Dude, I appreaciate the humor but...I didn't ask about NYC. So you might as well said there are tons of Fortune 500 flight departments in CA too. Nice try.

 

[Gulfstream 200]

sorry "dude"
but we will surely help if you get a little more specific!!
to ask what fortune 500 companies are based in New England is a little vague!.....I would guess about 75% of them as a guess....
anyways...
what areas are you looking to work out of???
If you are serious about corporate in the Northeast Its really going to be KTEB or KHPN, hate to tell ya... (Teterboro and Westchester)..
Didnt mean to be a smart A$$....hope I can help at all.

Hey, I'm all for smart a$$ posts. I've posted my share of them.

To narrow the search down, when I say New England, I really mean MA, CT, and RI. Boston area ideally.

Thanks
