NetJets Europe to hire 100 Pilots

[ultrarunner]

Could NJA even order the CJ3 with its current order backlog?

You can always slap down an order, right? When you get them is the issue.

But does NJA even place orders on spec? I would think NJ has sold the shares before the order gets placed.

I don't care where you're from... that's funny!

It is rumored that the Embraer Phemom 300 would be the replacement for the Ultra. Maybe the Phenom 100 would be a good replacement for the 400XP.

I agree that the 400XP is not "all that" or "a bag of chips".

i doubt the climb performance would be any better in europe. You still have the 3.3 gradiant problem with anti-ice on.

Plus they have mountains over there that make our mountains look like speed bumps.

But at least WE don't have to fly em.

Diesel,

The story is the legs are shorter over there so you can get the weight down enough to make the gradients..... You don't have to come out of ASE and go for 2+ hrs to get anywhere..... Shorter legs...

BTW the Alps and such are big, but they don't put a lot of our mountains to shame....

Yah, but that 400XP is kinda limited in where it can go in Europe seeing that there arent too many airports that carry prist over there. The prist thing has been a huge issue for NJE.

Okay lets take Geneva-Milan or even Geneva-London I don't have my planning program on this computer but it would be just under 2 hours for the beech jet. Maybe even an even 2. Geneva is effectively the central of europe in terms of money and power. Want a GV or Global go to geneva.

Anyways the departure out of Geneva (once again no planning on this comp) has you fly down the valey cross an altitude and then turn to clear the mountains.

I doubt the the Beechjet could make it. Only saving grace is that it's got a realllllllllly long runway.

So, if all of the Beechjets go to Europe, what is the likely replacement aircraft? Would the Beechjets go sooner than later - in a phased approach? When would this phase-out start?

I recall that Santulli had a fit that CS would be getting the CJ3s and cancelled all of the NJA orders - obviously that would be a great replacement aircraft if Santulli could swallow his pride and do what's right...

Looks like a nice aircraft. How many have been ordered thusfar? Any ordered by US customers? I never completely believe the marketing/online materials - you need to take them with a "grain of salt."

Questions to consider - how fast could they ramp up production of this aircraft? What kind of support could they provide on an ongoing basis? What is their history of supporting customers for other products? Reputation of the manufacturer would be very important - as would discount pricing for volume orders...
