WOODLAND AVIATION luquidating all at 2Q3

[PC12Cowboy]

Just heard old man Watts is getting out of the business......
any insiders got info...heard the yolo hanger is up at 1.5 million

 

[propsarebest]

YAY!!!!!


GOOD TO HEAR, WHAT A CRAPPY OPERATION IF I EVER SAW ONE. THEY NICKEL AND DIME YOU TO DEATH.


I WONDER WHO WILL TAKE OVER THE DEALERSHIP??

 

[PC12Cowboy]

props..I think its just the 135 ops....keeping the avionics and maintence..r so I heard...just getting rid of yolo ops

 

[propsarebest]

OHH, OK

I DON'T FEEL SO HAPPY NOW!!

GOT A BUDDY OF MINE THAT TOOK HIS A36 THERE FOR A ANNUAL, 8 GRAND AND ANOTHER SHOP LATER, IT WAS COMPLETED, CORRECTLY.


ISN'T ALL THE "TURBIN" STUFF AT YOLO?

 

[PC12Cowboy]

props...they took all the kings airs to watts

 

[LongBoarder]

What is your source for all of this?

Are you saying that they are just closing the Yolo operation? Or the entire 135 Op? They currently only have one 90 on certificate and a couple of Beechjets, not sure about the Hawker.

Being a guy that lives up here.... I am curious.

[wingnutt]

oops, wrong thread

 

[PC12Cowboy]

long boarder.
I have friends who know Mr Watts personally..and have a vested interest in woodland aviation.........as far as whats on certificate....do not know but theres are a lot of king airs livin at O41

 

[propsarebest]

THE PEOPLE THERE ARE GREAT, BUT THE PRICES THAT THEY CHARGE ARE JUST OUTRAGOUS, BECAUSE THEY CAN.



HEARD ANYTHING FROM SKYTREK? YOU ALSO MIGHT WANNA CHECK OUT THAT OUFIT IN OAKDALE WITH THE METROS, I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT'S GOING ON DOWN THERE.


WHATCHA SAY WE ALL POOL OUR $$ TOGETHER AND BUY A C90? THAT WAY I COULD GET BACK TO SMURFTOWN (I LIVE IN UTAH NOW)?


ANY TAKERS??? I CAN CONTRIBUITE THE 17 CENTS I FOUND UNDER MY COUCH CUSIONS YESTERDAY.

CHRIST, I CANT SPELL

 

[PC12Cowboy]

Props...well Skytrek jkeeps pushing back...now I'm qualified to fly in thier SIC.program to gain...IOE.....so looks like amflight or something else is in my future.
I got 28 cents...might be able come up with a dollar.....MAYBE

 

[propsarebest]

Sky Trek Is Good, But Honestly, I Think You Will Like Amflight More. I Know Lotsa Guys That Have Flown There In The Past, And They Say It Is Their Greatest Flying Experience Ever! Think About It, How Fun Is Flying In A 30 Year Old Lance, By Yerself, At Night, All Alone Up There Cause All The Contract Towers Are Closed, And You Still Have 5 Legs To Go Before U Can Rest? Priceless.

This Experience Will Make U A Better Pilot, Period.
With Yer Pc-12 Time, They Might Give U The Chieftian Right Outta Groundschool.

Good Luck
