Rumour has it , its the real deal. A couple of 757's out of YYZ running the sunshine destinations. Supposedly it is being put together by former C3 staff, who knows where the $$$ are coming from. More power to them. Maybe things are on the turn for the better.

Compettition is always a good thing, and we need more pilot jobs out there.

Ya well, their web site says to email them for more info which I did about a week ago.....still no reply. If they can't even respond to an email (after they invite you) then ya gotta wonder about thier ability to organise all the other stuff that's required to get an airline up and running.

My guess is they won't last long even if they do manage to get an AOC

My 2 cents even though nobody asked for it

Keep trying - I hear the response was so overwhelming that they could keep up. I got a response which basically told me everything is in the planning stages and to submit my resume.
The new owners have taken out the name under trademark protection.
The original owners are not involved as John Lecky passed away last year and Gus is with USA 3000.

Here is my email:
3000 will start operating as a charter airline with 2 757s. As the company is still in its planning phase, we are not in a position to elaborate. Anyone who is interested in applying for a position should send a resume. We will be contacting you at that stage only. Understand that it is crucial for us not to give any details at this present time. Thank you for your interest. <st1:country-region><st1lace>Canada</st1lace></st1:country-region> 3000 had a great name, still has a great name and will continue to do so.

Hey Denise,
Maybe you can flog some of your Trolly Dolly junk as inflight duty free. Can you bring some samples next time we have a beer at the Beaver?
