Happy Day at NetJets

[CA1900]

But how about we get back on topic and welcome Captain Dad aboard? :beer:

I'll drink to that! Welcome, Captain Dad!

I'll give the Twin Hill stuff a few months on the line, I suppose, but I'll probably order at least one complete set of M&H stuff during the year with my uniform allowance, and I can compare 'em side by side. I've heard good things about M&H quality, so it sounds like it was a good move.

Which shirts are better, Twin Hill or Van Heusen? I have had Van Heusens before and liked them but know nothing of Twin Hill.

I thought I was going to order the Twin Hill shirts, but really wanted to see what they looked like. I'm glad I did, because as a result, I went with the Van Heusens. Some guys can't stand the open-top fake pockets; I kinda like those. On the flipside, I really like the split-yoke shirts, as they give me a lot more freedom of movement in the shoulders. The Van Heusens have that, while the Twin Hill shirts don't. That sealed the deal for me, and I ended up order all VH shirts.

As you exit the training room, take a right, and open the next door on your right. It's a closet, and has samples of a lot of the uniform stuff in it. When I was there a few months ago, there were a few of each kind of shirt, which I was able to see in person. I'm sure they're still there.

Still a little numb. Can't believe it's real.

I know exactly what you mean! Congrats on the job; as a fellow ex-commuter pilot, I can appreciate how much of an improvement it is.
I feel your pain as far as the firehose goes; I'm at FlightSafety right now.

The Twinhill teflon-coated shirts are a lifesaver if you have a drinking problem like I do. The athletic cut shirts seem to fit fairly well as long as you arent a huge fatty (only a moderate one like me). Realize that you wont be able to buy the TH stuff after December so if that what you want then you sohuld probably order it right away as M&H wont carry any teflon shirts.

Welcome aboard. Remember, FlightSafety CMH is like no other . . . have fun anyway!

Been here 4 years - ex-military (Army Rotor and Fixed wing) missed out on the commuter and freight stuff, but waited longer than most to avoid it. I enjoy NetJets flying, keeps you on your toes.

Good luck.

We use M&H at Flex and I can say that their shirts are not that good. I always get the Elbeco shirts instead, much better shirt and it does have teflon. But, it does cost a little more but worth it. M&H shirts constantly have button failures and stain really easy.

Welcome aboard Cpt Dad!

I'm a Netjets guy deployed overseas.

I'm sitting in the Hilton (Diamond member, just like you are now) in Budapest.
(Known by all the military guys as "Booty Fest")

I see all of these other posts with beers clinking together! Yeah!

I'm off for the day and off to London tomorrow, so!

I'm toasting you right now with a Stella Artois beer! (It's 5 oclock somewhere?) (11:15am here)

Welcome aboard to all the new guys (Damn Dad, that tastes good!)

I'm on my 5th year at Netjets, and was 3 years at Flex before that. What a great group of pilots at both companies. I think you will enjoy the life.

Again welcome aboard to all of you, I can't wait to get back on the line.

Take care,

Budapest...the best kept secret in the world...where the ladies are hot Hot HOT !!! I stayed at that Hilton on the river . SIMPLY AWESOME !

 

[hydrarkt]

Ever been to Dombovar??

 

[Semore Butts]

Nope, never been to whatever you called it.

Yeah Turbo, the babes were awesome.

The Hilton is cool built into the castle kinda deal.

Now I'm in boring old London, a real letdown after "Booty Fest".

Not to worry, off to Bucharest tomorrow for a couple days.
