I haven't heard much about them them lately. But their MO is historically established. If you, I would not look for any money up front nor any special items to be added to your contract. It has been their MO to leverage things with other people's money. In addition to other holdings, they own several aircraft and lease them out, so this is where their real money comes from and why they are still around. Most of the contracts they offer are for start-up customers leasing Avionco's own aircraft, so supplying pilots puts a little more icing on the cake for them, but is relatively only a minor part of their income. They also like to work under the radar with questionable people and in questionable locations abroad, so be careful. Their contract is not enforceable anyway.
