Default State of the Bizjet Industry

High quality article on the state of the business jet industry. Pour yourself some coffee it's a long one. This is the best analysis currently to be had on this topic. As an industry insider I see a lot of accuracy in the Teal Group's words.

Good article. Not so sure about the mention of a Hawker 950xp. Oh and by the way Cubdriver, I got hired full time in PT.

Hey congrats, BC! You are going to have some fun. I'm envious. Maybe we'll cross paths over there, I know where you guys are and I'll will drop by sometime... I'm overdue. Looks like the pressure is off with the relocation issue, so that's something else to be happy about.

Well, the pressure relies on the upcoming vote that's for sure! I hope people use their brains. And yeah, thanks. I will have additional transportation duties, (BE1900 company trans.) but I'll still be based and operating within PT.
