NetJets offering jobs in Canada?
 

Does anybody know if NetJets/USA is offering jobs within Canada. According to their website not but maybe somebody knows something different.

I think they looked into it a while ago but have not heard anything. I will ask around and let you know.

NetJets International (Gulfstream large cabin aircraft) Pilot Requirements:

• Airline Transport Pilot Certificate (Multi-Engine Land)
• Current FAA First Class Medical certificate
• 5000 hours total pilot time
• 500 Gulfstream hours (preferred)
• Gulfstream type rating (preferred)
• Crewmembers must live in the Continental US and within 1 hour of an airport with scheduled airline service

Looks like they hire Americans to fly out to Canada.....

All of the Net Jets International requirements are no longer valid.

The only way you get into a GIV or GV now is by bidding into it from the union seniority list. No more direct entry pilots into NJI after the last contract agreement.

The Netjets aircraft only fly to and from Canada. They are still not allowed to fly point to point within Canada. That is left to the Canadian operators.

From reading some info on the other boards it looks like NetJets is going to bypass Canada and is looking to get Netjets ASIA going soon considering all of the growth going on there.

I do not know all the fine details of the regulations regarding fractional ownership, however, it's my understanding that the rules in Canada are significantly different than in the US. As a result, it is not feasible for NetJets to start operations in Canada.

I have not heard of any NetJet pilots being based in Canada, rather they just fly trips to Canada from the US on a regular basis.

Yep, NetJest can get away with being a private operator in the US as the only people they fly are the people who have bught a fration of the airplane i.e the owners. However in Canada, they view that just a bit differently and have to fly to the more restrictive Commercial Ops rules.

However, that being said, a company out in Calgary has taken a stab at it (I believe if memory serves correctly its called Sprint) using the PC12 and recently small jets such as the Citation Excel and Lear 45.

Wasn't there a Canadian version of FlexJet that started up a year or so ago with a couple Lears and a Challenger?

Is Flexjet not part of Bombardier which is a Canadian company. Bombardier is offering flying jobs within North America and Europe. Does anybody know more about Flexjet, it seems that they are not as big as NetJets.

It is difficult for anyone to start an air service in the Peoples Socialist Republic of Knanada.

To many bureaucrats and to high a tax structure....Even one of Canada's ex Prime Ministers operates his business off shore.

Shouldn't that tell you everything you need to know about that subject? :ok:

Is that the ex Prime Minister who receives cash payments in brown envelopes as admitted at his appearance before a parliamentary investigation?

No that was another of our honest upright moral Prime Ministers.

He cheated the Canadian tax system with his shipping company and then went on to introduce claw backs and user fees.
He was fired during the last election.
