It's another fast growing company, and yes it probably has it's problems just like any other company. From what I know, they are addressing those problems unlike others who bury their heads in the sand. Growth problems can take time to sort, but so long as they follow any plans they have to implement new working methods etc, those problems will go away or at least reduce dramatically.

One good thing is that there is no shortage of clients will to take the EBJ brand, which in all fairness, is an excellent one and with more aircraft coming on line over the next few months, the flexibility will strengthen the whole operation. Mind you, is the CJ1 the right aircraft? It lacks range which in todays biz world, might go against them as more clients will want to go further afield without the need to stop en-route for some go-juice !

Someone on here mentioned "the ops guy". Which one, they do have more than one, in fact they have a small team all playing a part in the 7 day operation.

Off to do more research........

dc9-32 would you like to clarify your connection to the company?

"From research, I do know that salaries are not the best" and "From what I know, they are addressing those problems " give the impression that you are not involved with ebj then you come out with:
"Not a disgruntled Universal Aviation employee are you" and "but so long as they follow any plans they have to implement new working methods etc" and "is no shortage of clients will to take the EBJ brand, which in all fairness, is an excellent one and with more aircraft coming on line over the next few months, the flexibility will strengthen the whole operation".

These are hardly the statements of a observer as you seem to know more than the pilots. I have not been able to find the info you talk about anywhere else in pprune so it would be good to find out how you know so much about the aircraft and new working methods.

dc9-32 I presume he means james.

french_colibri you will need to start a new thread on the topic of imperialjet that should get you more replies. Try this forum or the middle east.

I'm a consultant. Part of my work is to find out what's going on in the aviation world and to assist where or if I can. I carry out research on companies, ask questions etc.

In summary: I observe and listen.

Vanpilot

The aircraft are actually not based anywhere

They charge as little as possible for the charter hours to make the planes fly....how effective that will be long term.....wait and see. Anyone remember 'cheap but busy' Greggair?.. same old story.

Which really means, " I scab ideas from people who know more than me and put them forward as my own"
I find PQ OK (if we're talking about the same PQ <G>)

You are way off the truth. I don't need to scab ideas from anyone. I don't need to. Anyway, back to the thread......lets keep it on track.

I don't actually think EBJ charter out their aircraft at present purely because they don't have the availability and that is caused by being too busy.

Dc9 seems to be a little shy, his "research" should be accurate as he does indeed work for EBJ and has done for some months.
Come on Mr walla, admit it?

dc9 I think it would be more correct to say no chartering due to no crew. The XLS has been around for 9 months and for most of that there has been 1 pilot and now there is another XLS there is another pilot so they get one aircraft each.

I wasnt aware that the XLS that is goin to be based at EHPH isnt the only one on the EBJ books.

Do they really have (operate) 2 XLS's ?

Hi,

Does EBJ pay per diem?

How many night stops on an average 5 days on?


Thanks. L.

Hi Chaps,

OK here we go:


Simple question = simple answer.


Why does Pprune always descend into a slagging match nowadays?


Best regards. L.
