Former NetJets execs try their wings

These folks were NJ’s reps on the west coast. They won’t take down NJ, this is just one more nibbler off the west coast.

Experience and training are more uniform than different. NJ along with everyone else, use the same outsourced vendor’s for training. NJ doesn’t set themselves apart in this area. Customers are beginning to realize this. This is what Gorman was doing. Bringing all training and equipment under one house. Dispatch is good for filing flight plans. That’s about it.

112 planes and 78 employees?

Perhaps the first fractional UAV's?

Completely agree that they are using they're Netjets experience to foster a new venture.. However it appears they were in mostly sales.

My overall point is they are mainly a charter broker. One of the key advantages of NJA is that for the large majority of flights you will not be "brokered out" to some random charter company.

I say they are a charter broker because they claim 112 a/c.... I'd be very suprised if these 112 a/c aren't simply a/c they have access to through their broker network. Or atleast a large portion of them.

XOJet atleast has a fairly large fleet of their own a/c. And the rest they sell off to other firms.

again this story only holds weight because it was started by former NJA employees... Employees that were eventually replaced.

Really? So having a 1,500 hour wonder with a fresh type and 100 hours in type as the PIC and a 800-hour low turbine time, non typed FO is the same thing as NJ experience/standards. You're kidding yourself if you don't think there's a ton of scary sh1t flying 135 out there. The only thing that is comparable is the clip on tie.
