You guys crack me up! There are only three people who really know what is going on at JetGo and its none of you.
The drivel being sprouted here once again displays the lack of knowledge of what is really happening in the industry that we all derive our living from.
I have been here since 1996 when PPrune was a two forum email BBS, and have a really good idea what the “R” stands for. However the “R” is only pertinent when you actually know something (which most of you don’t) . Made up concepts or ….”my ideas” do not constitute the “R”.
JetGo is bringing something very new to market, do you honestly think that you pluck a multi million dollar jet out of thin air, have it registered and operating in country without having backing or experience and a combination of the two.
Instead of sprouting how they are going to do this or that, the JetGo crew have let their plane do the talking, actions speak a lot louder than words in this industry. They slowly got on with the job of doing it. A new AOC, not re-birthed or borrowed, compliant with their customers demands and that of the department.
This project has been on the cards for over two years, the paperwork has been at CASA for nearly a year. They have put in place the right people with the right experience, without the hubbub and the show.
So instead sprouting how “airline economics” dictate that this or that, and which aircraft is not suited for whichever market. Not every customer needs 100 seats, nor do they want to go 400 miles.
At one stage every airline in Australia had one aircraft……JetGo is no different. These guys have popped up from under the radar….. only because most people here can only see as far as their own horizon.
JetGo have deliberately played their cards very close to their chest, they are a fresh breath to the Australian industry
Australians talk about giving the underdog a fair go, well how about you guys give them the support that they deserve, more jets means, more jobs, more jobs means more options, and more options is what all the pilots in this country want and need.
Its either that or part time contracts with a one star airline, the once icon of the global aviation industry is not going to hire for a very very long time or you can stick to flogging about the sky in geriatric turboprop.
Your choice.
