Jetgo - have they gone?
Wondering what the latest is with Jetgo?
Are they still planning to launch RPT or given the state of domestic aviation, have they decided to stay with FIFO/ Charter etc.
Would anyone have any information regarding either 'planned' expansion or their current operations?

JETGO
They have just sent engineers to the US to do technical acceptance on two ERJ145's .. Believe they are starting services around September 1st. They still are hiring crew, two more at Flight safety as we speak. Good company by all accounts AND they pay their bills on time and look after the crew. Also fitting out a new corporate office in Sydney. Great to see this company maturing and able to give the industry a decent jobs flying late model jets in an industry that is so turbulent
Reading it as a non-precious* outsider I thought that the title was a neat play on words.
*I fly for QF. We aren't precious, are we?

Well Hawkerxp, oh contraire!
A little too much venom in those words not to respond.
Given a Google search last week revealed the Jetgo site had disappeared with an odd hosting? site in its place, its a very fair title. Given also the now restored website's 'Media' tab has not been updated since 2012, its very much a fair title.
As for the crew - well, if they're busy operating new aircraft, training in the US, accepting new ac's, fitting out new offices etc., reading this will have absolutely no effect.
May I proffer you, in fact, do a little searching before condemning!

I remember a few years ago a small jet charter operator who ventured into RPT, that had guys half way through endorsements in the states the day they shut their doors... Just saying.

That's pretty funny.
I just googled "jetgo"
No problem. Found this.
http://www.jetgo.com
Which appears to be an active working website.

did Jetgo make a huge mistake by getting aircraft with MTOW of 20,000kgs ?
If they had been 19,999 kgs they wouldn't have any security requirements at airports.
Are they going after some thin RPT routes due to mining going quiet or loss of FIFO mining contracts.

Good point... adds extra cost to the whole picture XPT.
Their selection of the EMB was based off thin, niche routes for a start, hence their selective choice of "ER" models.
It's a tough market in Australia and very cut throat and the Townsville refueller tells me that they don't have long to last.

Awww Chocks, you do try hard there don't you son.
With only 3 sentences in one post you you get all three wrong. 100% strike rate there buttercup.
If you had any idea of their business plan you would understand the move to RPT and where the market is.
If you even bothered to look properly you would see you dont even have the correct model aircraft.
If you were able to remove your cranium from your posterior you would know that "don't have long to last" has been said of and debunked by the team at JETGO from day 1, and guess what not only have they surpassed every single point that some expert here as said they wont make, they have done it quietly, profitably and professionally and gotten on with the job.
The excrement that you spew forth only serves to display your complete and utter lack of comprehension of fact or it confirms that you feel threatened by them as a competitor in the market (and probably rightly so) either way your only way to react to this potential threat to your own miserable existence, your are a poltroon of extraordinary proportion. So petal, crawl back under your rock where you came from and let the adults get on with the job at hand.
I would not normally play the man, as opposed the ball. However in this case Chocks, you have no balls to play..... so the man it must be.
