FLTJet

Post by Mr. Jones »

Anyone else notice the FLTJet job ad. I went to the website and found it was very similar to the one for that company that used to be in Buttonville. You know the one that used to sell PPCs. Looked at the aircraft registered to fltjet and the 2 listed both were last owned by that company out of Buttonville. Even some of the pictures on the website were the same. Interesting?

I had earlier posted that it was a ppc-farm like the previous company. I've recieved a PM from a current employee. He assures me that dispite the fact that the planes are the same, we're dealing with a different company entirely.

They are not selling PPC's
Employees do no pay for training
There is no training bond.

If all that stuff is true, than it would be a pretty cool place for someone to grab some multi time in southern ontario.

So for now consider the record set straight.

But I am sure if I were to offer them some dough they would be more than happy to give me some direction in their aircraft. Trust no one.

So then whos the ass? you for paying for a ppc or them for taking the money...Id say the worst is the one paying. why should a company not take money if someone ( i.e. an idiot) wants to buy a PPC. Its you I wouldnt trust, cause you'd be the one buying a PPC to try to get ahead of others.

I hope so too, but I found a link that might prove otherwise.

Here is an ad from a flight school in London that has the exact same address as FLTJET: http://www.avcanada.ca/forums2/viewtopic.php?t=24647

The schools website advertises that they sell Navajo and 310 PPCs and operate "in conjunction with FLTJET..." http://www.admiralflightacademy.com/tra ... ot/ppc.php

C-HIRS:

Thanks for the link. It's funny I had an employee tell me 12hrs ago that this wasn't the case. I told him that I had seen a link for someone selling PPC's in london in the same planes a few days ago.

Anyway, I take back my nice things and replace it with avoid it like the plauge.

Why do many "jet" companies, not own a jet or/and sell PPC's/type ratings?

Anyone else wonder if the chick in Tibor's avatar received a broken nose? Did it bleed?
That's a punch with a little northern influence!

looked like more of a cheek punch. I think if she hit the nose with that kinda force blood would have been spraying out.

It reminds me of the YPL northern store. Always some action and rotten meat in there.

So you're saying FLTJET isn't doing training despite what the other page is advertising?

How much is the bond on the PA-31 and the C-310.

I also posted something to the effect that FLTJET was very similar to another company formerly out of Buttonville and now has that companies planes. I was also PMd and told that what I was saying was not true.

Wondering if that member cares to clarify what he said to me in the PM??

Ok,

I used to work for this mofo.. what a piece of work Ravi is. Changed his name to "Raymond" packed his stuff, moved to London and set up shop there after getting shut down by TC in Buttonville.. This guy will stop at nothing...

I would say that anyone even THINKING of going close to this guy's planes should think twice. I watched a lot of people get burnt by this a-hole back in 2003-2004, be very very very very careful!!!

By the way, does TC know he's back? Nevermind, I'll be sure to let them know myself. That's right Ravi, Im talking to you mofo! Or is it Raymond?

Unlike V1, I have not worked for Ravi. But I have spoken to this guy who used to own NEXJETS out of Buttonville. What a joke that 30 mins was. This guy will say just about anything to you to get you to shell out money for training. By the end of this meeting you could tell that after paying for this training that plane would never carry any revenue for you to fly anywhere. Just a total rip-off in my books. These guys got shut down by TC and are very scary. I would stay as far away as possible from this operation. Consider yourself warned!!!
