Birmingham Based GV Operator - Chief Pilot and Son Flying Team?
Have you seen this Flight Safety ad describing this 20-something year old pilot who is now flying a GV with his pappy the Chief Pilot? Is this really the case? Anyone know which operator this is?
Can I marry into this family to get a GV job? Can anyone give me the scoop (you can PM me if you like)?
Cheers

Oooh no, the kid's GV training has gone to waste!!!!! What a shame for him (I hear the GV is great to fly). Flight Safety will need to change its ad.
I have heard operators in the States who have replaced Gulfstreams with Legacies have been disappointed big time. BBJ would be nice but not very practical if you need operational flexibility (use shorter strips).
Any more detail on the likely replacement aircraft?

If you replace a G5 with a legacy probably either your needs have changed or you spent a hill of money on the wrong aircraft in the first place.
