Lembrado,
Simple question = simple answer
Yes they pay per diem, and I reckon probably average 3 or 4 night stops per work cycle (but does vary, especially depending on whether you're an FO or Capt).
blablablafly,
Fleet very simply: CJ,CJ1 & CJ2 with some aircraft on Fractional, Charter, or Privately Owned. XLS's only private I think at this time.
Hope that helps ease the confusion,
Chinchilla.

The chief pilot was not a chief pilot in the traditional sense. He was neither a post holder or involved in the operational side of the company. These are covered by the flight ops director who remains in place. For those confused by who was chief pilot his initials are PN.

One of our aircraft was also at LSGS today, and I can only surmise that we also had an aircraft at both LFLB and LFMN on the days to which you elude. That being due singularly to me speaking from a position within EBJ.
I can therefore state with some authority that EBJ did not have an aircraft impounded today in LSGS; nor have we had such at LFLB or LFMN.
False "rumours" like impounded aircraft do companies such as EBJ no favours whatsoever. Your report may be based on what you consider to be good info; but let me say that your source is at best, simply mistaken.
We have a keen and professional core team working hard on eradicating the problems that bedevil many if not all small and young companies. Yes, we have issues outstanding; but the glee with which many on PPruNe clamour to embelish the seed of a negative story, no matter how fanciful, can quickly undo the efforts of many.

I tried to send an application to them, but the e-mail that I got from their website must be wrong as my e-mail bounced back. Has anyone got a name and/or e-mail address for me?
Cheers!

no thats not correct. I was captain on that flight. I forgot my company credit card and I paid for the fuel on my credit card and was immediately reimbursed. The airfield was Albecete and they dont have any other way to take for fuel.
I've kind of had enough of answering this kind of thing on PPrune and I dont appreciate it from people that dont reveal their identities. I work extremely hard for this company and I am starting to take these comments very seriously. This is a public forum - ten thousand people have viewed this thread. Any comment that is posted is subject to the uk libel laws (defamation act 1996) so please think carefully before you go to print.
happy new year all

I hear that the FOD is telling everyone he sacked the last ops manager. This is strange as I heard he had resigned.
As for libel it only works for lies not the truth. I can name the pax, crew, date of the nice incedent and others.
The main point I hear is lack of credit cards. Tom/steve what % of the crews have credit cards?

James resigned 3 months ago and after his notice period has moved to Hangar 8. I worked with james at EBJ and he was a great guy who worked very hard to get the company ops up and running and I am sure he will be sorely missed.
