NJA new TA... What will you really make?

[atpcliff]

Hi!

NJA is not flying the richest, because they have their own planes, such as the private A-380 that was purchased (unless they ALSO have a frac share/Marquis Jet Card, as described below).

NJA has a pretty big range, from Marquis Jet Card holders (min $40K to get in) to BBJ/Gulfstream frac owners. Some are smaller fry, like those mentioned above, and some may actually be the richest, because even if they own their own plane(s), they still may have a fract share in something they don't own.

I've flown several of those. Took one nice family from Florida to North Carolina, and the mother mentioned that they have their own G550, but don't like to use it on "these short hops." I love it!

Cliff,

You're right on, except for the cost to get a Marquis Jet Card. It's 3 times what you said for a 25 hours card in a ULTRA/BE-400A.

25 Hours (smallest card) is 119,000 + taxes, fees and charges. This is right from the ad I received in the newspaper on Thanksgiving weekend.

It's not uncommon to meet some folks that have shares in multiple planes or that perhaps have separate shares for their company and private use. I've even flown a family that's bought shares for other family members as gifts. Some other owners even buy Marquis Cards when they need a extra hours over and above the share allowance.

And people who have shares at more than one frax.

Hi!

WOW! $120K for 25 hours in the Beechjet. It seems incredibly expensive. I'm not sure how I thought it was $40K.

They sent us a solicitation once, and I thought that's what I remebered the price at from that-WAY off!

FYI 25hrs in the Sovereign is $220K and they are selling them like hot cakes

 

[Buddro]

For 25 hours in the X $250,000 plus taxes, fees, other charges.

I just checked.

YTD 2007

Overtime = 8.5%
You may get more but don't come here counting on it.

I don't know how people are getting 15% and more. You guys work too hard.

Also consider that, if these new schedules are actually utilized properly by scheduling (I know, I know), overtime will probably drop a little bit. 5-10% is probably a reasonable expectation.
