This I hope will in turn create more jobs and opportunities for people in the future. As far as the maintenance and flying, I only experienced one issue that grounded the aircraft. As a crew we were scheduled flights the day before and did not have any major changes if any. We rarely waited around in the FBO and had plenty of rest between duty periods. Not saying that happens all the time but that has been my experience. The aircraft otherwise have been well maintained and a joy to fly. I personally would recommend FE to anyone who asks.
