A friend of mine approached me today on behalf of a relative asking "which frac to choose?" Now my knowledge is limited due to the fact that I only flew for one for some time and had a limited base in the present on where they all stand here and now. Essentially, how are Flex, Flops, NJ, and Avantair doing and what are the pros and cons? I know, I know. I left one out, but that's a no brainer. Thanks!

NJ and Flex are not hiring off the street and wont be for years, so you can cross those two off the list. I don't know if the others are hiring or not. But then again those would not be the places I'd recommend anyway

Tell your friend to forget about Netjets, no recalls until 2016-2017

My bad guys. I should have clarified. She was asking about buying a card with one of the fracs, not working for them. Sorry.

A lot of people count out Planesense. They operate PC-12's at the same level NJ, FLOPS and Avantair operate.

The aircraft is extremely efficient and hold value. Based in NH they operate about 28 PC-12's around the country. The large operating areas being in the Northeast and Southeast but also everywhere in between.

The airplane is not the fastest aircraft in the sky but depending on the mission it can be a great entry level fractional option. It is roomy, capable and again efficient.

They also have stellar pilots.





How's that for company man. .

Pilatus is a beast.

Where does she live? If she is near MKC, TUL, ICT, BUF or DFW.....have her look at Executive AirShare.
Within our crew bases, no one can compete with our service and costs.
We offer fractional ownership as well as two other card type programs.

Maybe I'm totally off, but judging by the title it appears as Chile is asking what option to pick as a pax.

Don't forget XO as an option supposed to a long term commitment with a frac.

Now, how's that for a company man.

I would say NJ and Flex are the two best, and NJ has always been known to be the industry leader. But I'm biased!
