Regardless of the choice of aircraft: Am I the only one to question the timing of this Flexjet Europe relaunch? It looks to me like the next recession is fairly imminent. I for one would launch a new offering in the early days of a strong economy, and not when the downturn is just a question of "will it happen this year or next?".
Be careful not to be at the top of that sh*t pile, then back to the bottom of someone else's within a very short space of time. Doesn't matter how experienced you are.

I was referring to rumours and this quote :
Flexjet Europe has also recently hired someone who brings deep experience selling private jet travel solutions throughout Europe to help facilitate these plans. Ricci said more details about this new employee and its new European access program will be announced in early January.
Really? A successful business man he may be but I despise his union busting at Flexjet US. Unfortunately the pilots fell for it and will have only themselves to blame for sub-standard conditions, when compared to NetJets.

Also reasonably offensive to the 600+ Flexjet pilots who voted for it.

Sorry, back on the economy of things in Germany and Europe as a whole. This from the German Economy Ministry:
"A bigger downturn or even a pronounced recession is not expected at the moment. However, indicators don't point to an economic turnaround for the better either," it added.
....and then:
Finance Minister Olaf Scholz told lawmakers on Tuesday that Germany was ready to pump "many, many billions of euros" into its economy to counter any significant slowdown in growth, and said the country must take bold measures to fight climate change before it is too late.
This is one tool that healthy economies can use when things are slowing down. Other countries in weaker economies often dont really have much left to support its market with though but I wouldnt worry too much about Germany to be honest.

And it wasn't 600+ who voted the union out at Flex. It was 318 to be exact. Many of which for short term gain, no doubt. Not clever.

The minister quoted, btw is Olaf Scholz, a man I wouldnīt trust further than I can throw a washing machine. Thats the dude who was mayor in Hamburg before and during the G20 riots, who parctically guarantted that there would be no rioting at all. History told him a lesson, one would think, but no, this dude...

The process was phone interview, then assesment day with a personal interview for around one hour and a sim check. Afterwards another short phone conversation with 2 management guys if sucessfull.
Job offered but without knowing terms and conditions ( I know, quite funny). They said they would contact shortly with final offer.

The company looks great to be honest, and they treat the people really well from what I saw, which is not very common this days. It remain to be seen which package they offer and as other people say how they are going to manage to get a place in the European market.
Worth at least an application, guaranteed you will come back from the assesment with good sensations about this outfit.
