Any chance that iAero CEO is the same Robert Caputo that got nailed for $3mil of mail fraud in Nevada? Wouldn't really be a perfect Corrosion Corner story otherwise. I saw some of the other names connected to Air Methods and that Jumpjet private jet ride sharing deal.

Edit: Link to a press release naming some of the big players. It names iAero as "a leading integrated aviation business" with ramp space and MRO facilites at KMIA.

Have they been filling classes as it seems like there is a class every few weeks? And the latest recruiting material says upgrades are down to less than a year if you're qualified with the 121 time.

3 more -300s from southwest coming in January.

Their saying addition of 18 more aircraft I guess after this deal is complete. Not sure to what kind of flying. Hopefully an increase in benefits and compensation to help boost.

Oh man those 300s are used! They had 50% reliability when they were retired. Get used to sweating on a cool day. For whatever reason they could not stay cool. Took over 2 hrs to get cabin to manageable temps after takeoff.

Fun to fly tho. Handled nice

Tell me about it any -300 sucks in the summer. One recirc fan, weak packs and crappy APU with not enough capacity.

Not always the APU that’s bad... the air conditioning pack compressor impeller blades are usually worn out.
