Gulfstream getting CoEx Routes?

[Lord Wakefield]

The "my flying" mindset came from the Europeans who do all sorts of things to prevent U.S. pilots from going there and doing "their flying."

We just turned it around on them out of the frustration of seeing these same Europeans coming here and still treating it as "their flying."

 

[Lord Wakefield]

Excellent!!!

When we run out of qualifiable Americans, then and only then can we recruit foreigners.

Importing foreign indentured servants (often subsidized by their own governments) to do jobs americans would do for a living wage SUCKS and is unpatriotic.

Lord Wakefield,
My thoughts exactly. Contact your congressman. I have done my part.

Flying

The point here had nothing to do with foreign flyers, it had to do with people who think that flying belongs to someone who is not the company or entity that contracts for it.

Re: at least a scab heals an open wound

I don't think this is gonna fly. 'Stream aircraft operating out of EWR that is. New Yorkers wouldn't like the idea of foreigners coming here for flight training on student/tourist visas and then flying commercial, albeit small, Beech Airliners into buildings.

You are quite right that Gulfstream will not be flying out of EWR. The Port Authority will not allow ANY new turbo prop service out of this airport. Only current turbo prop service is allowed under the "grandfather" clause.
Neither is flight training allowed on a tourist visa, has to be a student visa like a J1 or M1. These visa are arranged via a reciprocal arrangement with participating countries.
Under the JAR's it is actually easier to obtain a European ATP certificate than it was in the past you might want to check on this.
To work in a European country requires a work permit or resident status just like the United States requires. It is not easy to obtain a work permit or "green card" here. Students that fly here as instructors ect. are under the J1 program that allows foreign nationals to gain experiance in their specific field for up to 24 months. This not only includes flying but any professional career listed within the J1 program. Just some facts for you.

Like what exactly? Please specify what these Europeans are doing to prevent you from flying there.

Just got off the phone with a friend that works for Gulfstream, according to him they will make a big announcement soon (all I can say it that COEX and IAH is involved). Anyone know if Gulfstream is a public company, might be a good time to pick up a few stocks...

Yeah sure. Just sent them the money and you could wind up holding an empty bag just like those who signed up for the health care plan and the 401K.

Sure its called pay for investing. You buy their stock and in 6months you have the possibility of really owning the stock .
