Call it Surfair Part 2....
Sorry if this has already been discussed, but the number of airplanes to be used is pretty astounding. The founder of Beacon is also the founder of Surfair and Beacon will partner with Dynamic Aviation and operate a mix of
27 used B200s and B1900Ds reconfigured in a 9-seat executive layout initially between HPN-BOS and later possibly to IAD and PHL (with HTO and Nantucket/Martha's Vineyard on the weekends). Members will pay only $1,000 to join and then pay $2,000 monthly for unlimited travel....
What do people know about Dynamic Aviation as an employer? What do people know about this Beacon operation including starting pay and schedules? I have a few friends with King Air time who live in the area who could apply... Looks like they are already looking for pilots at both HPN and BOS:

Here's some additional information I found below on Google about the partnership:
Dynamic Aviation and
Beacon today announced a strategic partnership to deliver a world-class air travel experience to Beacon customers throughout the Northeast, beginning with service between New York and Boston. The partnership will facilitate Beacon’s late-summer launch and rapid expansion throughout the Northeast.
As part of the agreement, Dynamic Aviation will deliver 27 mid-sized executive turbo-props manufactured by Beechcraft over the next three years, and is contracted to maintain and operate the aircraft for Beacon over the next ten years. Dynamic Aviation will provide commuter services on an exclusive basis to Beacon.
“Dynamic Aviation is pleased to join with Beacon, whose innovative vision and customer commitment has been apparent from the start,” said Michael Stoltzfus, Dynamic Aviation president and CEO. “Beacon’s attention to customer needs and expectations is the perfect complement to Dynamic Aviation’s longstanding record of safety and reliability. Together, we look forward to providing Beacon’s members with unparalleled customer service.”
“Beacon believes in delivering world-class aviation solutions. Our partnership with Dynamic Aviation enables us to do just that, by offering the most efficient aircraft to travelers who need to save time, money and precious resources,” said Wade Eyerly, CEO of Beacon. “With a record of successful operations for major clients stretching back over 40 years, Dynamic Aviation stands out as a leading provider of aviation services throughout the country. Combining this operating experience with the service experience of the Beacon team, this partnership will truly allow Beacon members to enjoy a one-of-a-kind premium travel experience,” said Cory Cozzens, COO of Beacon.
The launch of planned operations is subject to receipt by Dynamic Aviation of appropriate authority to operate scheduled interstate commuter service from the DOT and FAA.
