Isn't Textron part of United Technologies? UT Flight is in Bradley, CT - big operation flying big Iron.

I think they fly out of PVD, I remember seeing there hangar and a Citation 10 I believe with the tail number ###TX

Cant remember the exact numbers

Based at PVD, in their own hangar....right across the street from Hooters.
From what I have been told- they have not had a pilot leave for a long time and when they do leave it is due to retirement.
Small flight dept- need to know someone there to have any chance at getting in.

Good luck

My girlfriend's father works for Textron (not in the flight department) I asked him about what they were operating he said it's Citations and Bell helos (why buy something else when you can make it yourself, right?) but that they were also using Citationshares a lot more. And yes, they are based out of PVD. United Technology is a whole different company, which I believe as someone posted earlier, is based out of BDL. They have an office right accross from the pax terminal, so it would make sense for them to base their fleet there.
