I would be a bit cautious. I'm not putting down the VLJ airtaxi thing, but I don't believe the timing is right to do this type of thing. Getting financing is not an easy thing these days. They will require financing to supprt their plans for 5000 VLJ orders or whatever. (I just love how these companies say "Yes, we believe our business model will afford the expansion of 100 jets in the first year). Wow, have these folks been stuck in a time capsule the last 2.5 years? Hey, I hope it works, but don't hold your breath, ok. Keep it real.
