Just got the call for NetJets!!!

[On Your Six]

I was called this morning by Linda and offered the job. I have a May 12th ground school class in the Hawker 400xp. I am really excited and thankful.

Does anyone have any info on the Hawker 400xp?

Thank you and I looking forward to working with everyone at NetJets.

Great job! The Hawker 400XP (AKA Beechjet) is a fun airplane to fly from what I hear. It doesn't have great range so you will primarily fly shorter flights (which will be easier on your a$$) but you will likely see a lot of the country. Check out the following:

Check out airborne EJA Beechjet flights link (look for EJA and click on those flights to see routes and layovers):

i dont think anyone calls it the hawker 400xp.. i think they all call it the beechjet

that is like calling the G200 a gulfstream...

Either way you are going to love it... Had a beech rescue us in Napa two weeks ago!

Congrats and welcome on board! Just hung out with two 400 guys this morning (0 dark thirty) and they were happy with the plane. I guess a H450 is in the works?

IMHO you should have took the U-boat!

Hog,
Yeah I heard that rumor about the 450 when I did initial over 2 yrs ago. Given their track record with trying to get the 4000 certified, I think we will be out of Iraq before the 450 (if ever) gets certified.

Ever miss the old days at Biggs?

Fantastic news! I just met a Netjets Beechjet driver and he really enjoyed the airplane. He said it is not the fastest airplane out there but it is easy to fly and a very casual group of pilots. He had flown the X as an FO for years and he was happy to be flying shorter trips.
