Additional orders for Piaggios will bring fleet to over 100 by 2012
Schedules are 7 on, 7 off

Don't tell ME! I don't have administrator rights to change stuff like that on the Informational pages. I asked that you contact one of the Administrators (HSLD or Freight Dog) with your facts, and they may ask for a reference, but I don't know the usual source for their information.

There are a couple of Avantair discrepancies on the profiles page, however they do have 52 aircraft on order through 2013, and their home is Fairfield, NJ
not Clearwater:Avantair, Inc. - Avantair Investor Information

The link you sent states that their HQ is in Clearwater, FL.

I have a friend who works at Piaggio. He just told me that no one has anywhere near 52 P180's on order.

That's the sales pitch Avantair upper management puts out there to give the impression or growth. Same with hiring. They can barely keep up with attrition, never the less increase the pilot numbers.

I hear good news for the union push. It sounds like the majority are in favor of it! Will be interesting to see the actual percentage of yes to no votes.

I am getting the exact same feedback. The number of pilots who sent in their union cards has far exceeded the number required for a vote. Looks like the forced 8/6 schedule completely backfired on the management who did it.
