NetJets lost a true friend and pioneer in this company.

Godspeed.

Please take a minute of silence with us.
 
Diesel--I'm so sorry. My prayers go out to his family.

I just saw him post here the other day. I assume it was sudden. Take care.TC
 
The winter uniform is a joke here at NetJets... I have had Double Pneumonia twice in 7 years here at NetJets. The Uniforms are not designed for our line of work on the ramp-walking 100 yards to the FBO in sub-zero conditions, humping bags etc...

We need a light weight parker with a removeable liner-one that will double in the summer as rain gear... I was in the military for over 20 years and missed 9 days of duty, here at NetJets-same job- I have missed over 45 days in the winter due to the UNIFORMS..

God Bless him and his family...

I'm new, and have been wondering how well the thin uniform coat we're issued is going to keep us warm running around on a freezing ramp.

My husband just called. He wanted to tell me himself because he knew that I shared a bond with Bizjet and his wife, who had both been supportive in my family's personal fight for justice. Their family had won justice in a similar battle, and they shared helpful info with me in hope that we would reach that stage as well. NJA will have a far easier time replacing Bizjet as a professional pilot than 1108 will have filling the void that is felt when a community loses a caring member of the group. My heart breaks for his wife.
 
He was still employed. Only early 40s, I think, if that.
 
He was still employed as far as I know. I feel for his family and as NJW said the 1108 will miss him sorely. My prayers go out to his family. It's stuff like this that makes you want to tell the people you haven't in a while you love them.
 
Sorry for you loss guys.
On the subject of the coat. I used a heavy dress coat made from wool or wool like fabric. They run from 150$ to 250$ and kept me warm though about 8 upper Midwest winters of walk arounds. And they look fairly sharp too.
 
Yes Godspeed Bizjet 737

Until last year when I had a nasty case of pnemonia I found it hard to understand how people died of pnemonia.

I spent a week in bed with pnemonia thinking I was going to die and hopeing it would happen soon to get rid of the pain. Zero strength and with the pain in my lungs I could never get comfortable.
 
My thoughts and prayers go out to all his family and friends. Sounds like he was a real great guy. Is there any way you can use this tragedy to convince the company to change the uniforms?
 
It's always sad to see someone die so young. Our prayers to his family.
 
Geez that is tough -- my sympathy and prayers go out to his family. Did he have kids?

Does anyone know if there is a fund or something that will be set up? Will NJA or 1108 do anything to help out the family since it is more than likely (or at the very least a major possibility) his condition was caused or aggravated by his job?

If anyone hears about a fund or something please post or pm me. Thanks.
 
Amazing grace! How sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now am found;
Was blind, but now I see.
’Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,
And grace my fears relieved;
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed!
Through many dangers, toils and snares,
I have already come;
’Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far,
And grace will lead me home.
The Lord has promised good to me,
His Word my hope secures;
He will my Shield and Portion be,
As long as life endures.
Yea, when this flesh and heart shall fail,
And mortal life shall cease,
I shall possess, within the veil,
A life of joy and peace.
The earth shall soon dissolve like snow,
The sun forbear to shine;
But God, Who called me here below,
Will be forever mine.
When we’ve been there ten thousand years,
Bright shining as the sun,
We’ve no less days to sing God’s praise
Than when we’d first begun.
 
Did some of my first tours with him as a FNG in the SII. Stunned. Words don't do him justice.

Godspeed bizjet737
 
I'm sorry to hear that he has passed. My prayers go out to his family and friends.

Blue Skies, Black Death
 
We're so sorry to hear that he lost his battle against pneumonia. Heartbreaking.

Deepest sympathies from my family to Randy's.

RIP bizjet737
