I have heard that MaxJet is losing 5 Mil a month. How long do you think they can continue down this road while opening new routes like Las Vegas to Standstead before the roof caves in.

Just recently they had one of their B767's grounded for two+ weeks, (may still be grounded?) when it was discovered that the airplane did not have a certified functioning windshear system in it! The airplane had been in service from day one of operations. Sounds like they have some real operational issues to over come. One of the Boeings that they recently bought had a small issue with it's mechanical history. It was one of three airplanes based in the Middle East during the Gulf war. It was out of town so to speak, when the two sister ships were destroyed on the gound. Problem was that all five years of maintenance records were destroyed for the one remaining aircraft. Maxjet has been going through barbwire trying to get it back into the US with this significant problem in it's past. It's called confomity and the FAA takes it very seriusly. Don't bet the house on the two airplanes that are supposed to come in December as there seem to be other claims on them outside of Maxjet. Bottom line, this looks more like a house of cards every day that passes.

N250MY was out of serive for 10 days and was returned to service on 10/25. N251MY which was originallay a Kuwait Air aircraft just completed a c check and interior reconfiguration last week in GSO and will be beginning its FAA conformity check next week. I am not sure where you get your financial numbers other than heresay. As far as the next two airplanes are concerned, they are secure and there are no other claims.

No harm meant N92553. I'm not aware of any hearsay in my comments, rather
repeating information that has been passed along. How long do you expect the conformity check to take on your Kuwait Air aircraft to take? As for the Air Mauritias aircraft, I do know someone who says they "are his". May or may not be true but you have admit it's a little strange when others claim to have these aircraft in their pockets.

Good luck as we all need some in this business.

He said-she said. Isn't that hearsay?
 
I don't know if there are any set minimums but about 6000TT has been the lowest so far. I believe all most all have over a 1000 PIC jet time. I think as the airline grows the numbers will become lower over time.

Why would anybody with that kind of time fly for garbage wages at a fly-by-nite company?

You may well be right. The guy is a Pakistani living in Canada, what could be wrong with that? These two aircraft average 8o,000+ hours each. Not much life left in them anyway.
