NJI rats leaving the sinking ship

[Hogprint]

hydrarkt hit it out of Fenway. That is it in a nutshell.

I don't think you have a clue! What the company did for you when you needed help is not an NJI thing...it is a Netjets thing.

Oh yeah… Then why are you cry-babies constantly on here bad mouthing your company day in, day out? You two faced morons talk out the side of your neck more than two old ladies after Sunday church. I bet I’ve been around here as long as you have, and the day I walked on the property you guys were crying.

Leave the Wolf pilot alone, he happens to be dead on target, and one of the brightest “young” pilots we have. He kept me awake across the Atlantic for 8 hours without pissing me off.

As soon as this contract is over, you’ll be back on your soapbox crying again, boo-hooing again, and threatening everyone again. Same old union crap; different song on the same old album.

I love saying it… You and your union… can’t touch me!

There is no such thing as a "bright" pilot unless they have something going on outside of aviation. A monkey can fly a plane.

Taking care of the pilots is not an NJI or NJA thing it's a netjets thing.

I recently had a family issue and Netjets bent over backwards to take care of me.

Jeez Rusty

Don't be such a twit, NJA has done alot of great things for alot of our guys as well in emergency situations.

They are a great supporter of the reserves and guard.

They took great care of my family needs when I was in Iraq.

I even got a DVD from B.B. about the contract. I threw it over the fence into bad guy land.

The next day they threw it back with a note that %&%*&^% you! No!

Netjets sent me and the other 2 Netjets pilots in my unit a great Christmas package.

Don't think you NJI guys have the market cornered on being treated decent.

I'm on active duty again headed for Afghanistan so I'm out of the mix for awhile.

Very interesting to see all the "English People" correcting each other. Don't bother correcting mine. This is an internet site. How is this sentence?

"Get a grip".

Rusty, you seem to have a real attitude towards NJA.

Lose it man, these are good people too.

I can tell by your "prick level" that you would be alright to fly with.

Have a good one.

Brightest young pilots ya say...............bla bla bla. And he kept me awake for 8 hrs over the pond. I hope that you truly dont think that I care about that. Rusty, if you just left this site all together, that would be just great. Your an IDIOT!

A huge loss for NJA was a one time payment for pilot "signing bonuses." This bonus was 60% of the total signing bonus with the remainder to be paid in 2006 or the beginning of 2007. The payout in 2007 will be significantly less than 2006. In 2008 there will be no signing bonus payments remaining.
Let's discuss exactly WHY NJA had $85 million in selloffs in 2005. There are 2 main reasons. 1) Someone, either WB or RTS let the idiot BB sell off the core fleet for short term gains. Along with this, the idiot BB was allowed to oversell a buttload of Marquis cards. Result: there were too many owners and card holders and not enough planes. This required a TON of sell offs to cover the large increase in trips. 2)Also (and this is no small potato) was the threat of a pilot strike. NJA, fearing a strike, bought even more charters to cover themselves for the holiday season. There were literally hundreds of NJA pilots sitting around FBOs during the busiest time of the year. Why? Because NJA had prepurchased all this charter. In 2006 and on NJA will need nowhere near that amount of supplemental lift.
So in the future these 2 large losses will not be present. If NJA decides to reacquire and retain a core fleet, selloffs will diminish greatly. Pilot salaries are not the issue. The major issues are scheduling and maintenence efficiency. Scheduling practices are atrotious. And maintenence practices and oversight are too cumbersome.
There is such a huge demand and huge potential for services such as NetJets. The business will survive in some form. It will be interesting to see.

Your right on hydrarkt, but dont forget to add in exactly how much it is that the high school/college kids in scheduling have cost the company either. Millions........at the least.
