XOJET taking delivery of second CL300 this week

[cherry20's]

We are in the process of taking delivery of our 2nd 300 this week. It was a question on another thread topic so I figured I would start a new one. Still on track to get the 3rd one by the end of the year! 17 new 300's still planned for next year.:beer:

And yes, the first one is flying 135 trips already. I flew past t-bone in it coming back from Hawaii the other day. Sure is a nice plane!

You're an oceanic Guru Cherry! :beer:

Does anyone know if they decided on paint, or if the next cl300 will be white?

 

[johnnyride24]

Can't afford the paint job. TPG is cutting back!!!

Funny, actually they already painted the first one twice. Owner didn't like the X paint job on the 300. I hope your kiding... I heard that its still gonna be white Clyde.

 

[clydefastly]

Zinc Chromate color. We can tell people it is a fuel savings measure. Going Green!!!!

Too corny??

Sheesh.... If you can't joke about aircraft paint than what can you joke about?


Huh?

 

[say again]

Are they hiring? just updated the app.

I would guess the interviews will start up again around Jan or Feb. Hang in there, its worth the wait!

Rumor out of Bombardier HQ is that they are delaying some deliveries. No specifics cited.

Rumor out of Bombardier HQ is that they are delaying some deliveries. No specifics cited.

All I know about that is that Bombardier tried to accelerate their deliveries to us, and we asked them to push them back to what had originally been agreed on. #2 was also pushed back by Bombardier due to a backlog of deliveries to other clients in front of us.

If there have been other shifts in the delivery schedule, it hasn't made it down to the rank and file yet. It woudn't surprise me though if we're trying to slow things down...sounds like a prudent move in this market, if you asked me.

 

[cherry20's]

Well, maybe Bombardier will solve that situation for us! I do agree with you t-bone.

Any pics of your first 300 guys?

WOW!!!!!
Innovative paint scheme. I can only imagine what the interior looks like. j/k
Best of luck to you all at XO, the 300 is a fun plane to fly (at least it was in the sim) and TPG always seems to have the Midas touch when they pump money into a business.

hey talked to a Netjet guy today and he said you guys will close up shop early next year, now im sure he has no idea what he was saying but....just had to throw it out there that this stuff is being said.

I'd say if he knew that much about business he'd be riding in back instead of driving!

ATR Your A Fag! Nice try trying to start something between the NJA guys and the XOJet Guys. Funny I looked all over our Union board No such Talk exists and if there were the slightest chance to any of your Bs Story there would have been posts on our Union Boards talking about something like this.

I love Listening to Homo's like you come on here and tell everyone how a NJA Pilot who is a complete stranger to you would walk by you and tell you XOjet is gonna go out of Business.

So I'm gonna guess this is how it your conversation went:

NJA Pilot is Airlining Home on Day seven ATR42flyer with his frost tip hairdo and Ipod in one ear notices a NJA pilot is airlining on his plane. ATR42 Flyer then proceeds to Dry hump the tired NJA pilot leg and ask for info about his job and in the split second conversation the NJA guy says how great we are and that XOjet sucks and is going out of Business.

For someone that on previous Threads was asking for info on applying to NJA and XOJet Sounds like you got the big D letter from both of our companies

Go back to your Little Commuter plane and your bottom feeding regional Republic Airlines and get a life you little troll.

I was talking to a regional pilot the other day and he said you are a registered member on NAMBLA. I'm not exactly sure if he has any evidence, but I just had to throw it out there because that's what's being said.

You're a looser! Get a life.

I like the looks of the 300 in all white. You guy's will love this machine.

 

[can99]

Why did Xo 'stick on' an extra window on the side of the plane????

Take a look there is a 7th window and it clearly isnt real, I heard a rumour about this from people that went to nbaa and they all laughed at the sticker window.... if you want to become the joke of the industry this is how you do it folks.

click here and compare it to other 300's

Really??? This is the criteria you use to determine who is the joke of the industry? You can't think of anything better, like pay, QOL or schedule? What it all boils down to is who does or doesn't put silly stickers on their planes? I agree, I think that sticker is silly. But WTF cares??? Our passengers sure don't!

 

[X-Wind]

I have yet to be reimbursed for my expenses incurred during my interview.

Makes me wonder what XO's financial situation really is????

 

[F/O]

Why did Xo 'stick on' an extra window on the side of the plane????

You've got to admit, that is freakin' ridiculous. Was this an XO exhibit or a Bombardier exhibit?

 

[jonjuan]

If it's just a sticker, then why didn't they make it a HUGE "window?" I'm thinking of a 3' x 3' job. Think about that marketing idea: "The CL 300. We have the world's biggest window."

Reminds me of the G-200's leading edge. Now why did they go ahead and paint the black rubber boots SILVER? Hmmmmm.........

 

[Hand Commander]

Swing and a miss! Twice!

HAHAHAHA! Reminds me of a shirt I saw. All it says is, "your retarded"

 

[can99]

Question T-bone as this is obviously hit a nerve and u cant see the funny or ridiculous side of your marketing people you say: But WTF cares??? Our passengers sure don't!

You dont really still have this 'extra' window sticker still on the jet do you? ?? Now if xo did that sure would be sad! I hope it was just a nbaa bit of marketing fun.
