Default Netjets first GlobalExpress up for completion

The first of 50 Global Express for Netjets is ready for completion. The first Global 6000 was ferried from Toronto to Montreal for final completion.

The Netjets order is for 30 Global XRS 5000/6000 and 20 Global XRS 7000/8000. The first delivery is still scheduled for last quarter of 2012

This is a link to the article, no photos or video, but if I find it, i'll post it

Why do I suspect that NetJets will regret moving away from Gulfstream for their large cabin fleet?

Several rumors floating around as to why Sokol (NETJETS' former CEO) decided to leave Gulfstream for Bombardier.

My opinion, Bombardier gave him the price he wanted

Because 90% of pilots think they know everything.

So is NetJets ever going to recall thier pilots and start hiring again? I can't hang on too much longer at the regional level...

Better get a back-up plan...... Forecast is for recalls to start sometime in 2014... Will actually be pleasantly suprised if they do by then...
