Airnet Pilots

I'm wondering is there are any agreements on the Airnet side between Airnet and the New Jetride/Pinnacle. Any flow through, training, etc. deals that you guys have heard of?

Thanks.

Thanks.

Latest word... unfortunately... is that AirNet has asked JetRide to stop taking (interviewing/hiring) their pilots. AirNet is having a retention/hiring problem at the present time (thanks to Regional airlines and the FAA), and there are more than a few qualified guys and gals at AirNet that have expressed interest in making the move... only to be told by JetRide "sorry".

So... right now if you want to work for JetRide... don't work for AirNet.

Does Jetride still own Airnet? Or Airnet own Jetride? Which ever way it was?

AirNet sold JetRide to Pinnacle Air Executive Charter back in July of 2006. There had been a flow thru agreement when AirNet owned JetRide, and it remained in place informally after the sale... up until recently as mentioned previously.

Airnet still operates their lears flying checks then? I take it their passenger jets all went over to jetride then, correct me if I'm wrong.

Yes Airnet still operates the lears to fly checks. When jetride was sold all passenger planes went with them.

The Jetride acquisition brought a lot of quality assets to the Pinnacle Group. Quality, well kept aircraft wasn't one of them. But, that will soon be rectified.
