I knew exactly what you were trying to say. As you said perhaps there is an
intellectual plane problem. I was trying to support you.
As for my planes, I know they are of elderly design but boy are they reliable. In the last 60 days have we raced to the rescue of broken Lear 45's ,Challenger 604's and even a Gulfstream.The passengers did not seem to mind getting on a serviceable "older" aircraft.
I know there is a campaign by some operators of shiney new aircraft to rubbish older aircarft as dangerous and unreliable but that is simply not the case. Some brokers even make a point of pointing out the age of the aircraft.
I am going to start a campaign that all quotes to clients must also show the reliability record of the aircraft they may be flying in. So lets start a register. I suggest the last 300 sectors as a yardstick but I am open to suggestions for other criteria to be used.
I will start by volunteering information on our Hawker 800.. It is 100%. Please can we have figures for other aircraft please.
