I was contacted by a friend who is looking into purchasing into the frax programs. He asked me "who is recommended" (what company) and I simply had no clue, from a "client standpoint", who is the "best" company. (Netjets, Flex, Options, etc)

This guy will be flying a few 800 mile trips a month and maybe one coast to coast every 6 months. OCCASIONAL trip to Cayman or Cancun, once a year type thing. Max pax load at any time is 4 to 5 people. Non-airline service airports

this guy is unable to afford buying a jet, hangar, insurance, pilot salary, however he is tired of airlining and renting cars and driving 4 more hours to his destination.

thanks

What makes him think that this is going to be alot cheaper. After putting up the money for the quarter share he will have monthly and hourly fees that will add up quickly. Oh yea i have read nightmares about aircraft depriciation when the owner trys to get out.

It sounds like he should charter.

So the guy can't afford a thing? That makes real sense. Have him look in Marquis card. He can pay for smaller blocks.

Of course do you really think this guy can afford charter, frax or owner card?

Buying, hanger, insurance, and pilot salary are all put in the monthly managment fees.

Usually there isn't an issue that the owner can't afford owning the airplane. Just that it doesn't make good financial sense. Does this guy really know what it costs to fly these planes?

All the companies have cards.I would think it would be cheaper for anyone and just add time when you need it.
