YourJet Team and Supporters,
Mark Fava, the author of the blog post linked below, is YourJet attorney and advisor for all things FAA, of which most important, is the Part 135 Operating Certificate. Mark is one of the most prominent aviation attorneys in the country and has been hard at work with our local FAA FSDO (pronounced “fiz-doe”) to facilitate our 135 application and our cause.
Mark’s post includes an NPR story about Ed Iacobucci (pronounced, “ee-ack–oh-buchee”–you didn’t know air taxi speak would be so confounding, did you?), founder of DayJet in Florida. But most importantly, Mark describes EXACTLY our value proposition–YourJet saves time for the “yearning and productive” by getting them off the roads and into the air!
For trips more than 100 miles but less than 600 miles or those requiring multiple meetings in multiple cities in one day, YourJet air taxi offers safe, fast and hassle-free air travel that is the affordable answer to the quagmire hub and spoke nightmare that defines commercial airline travel today.
Read his post and see why business people already do fly air taxi–even a single engine propeller-driven four seat fixed landing gear Cirrus SR-22! Steve Hanvey, founder of SATSAir, Paul Fischer, founder of ImagineAir and Bill Herp, founder of LinearAir, have all proved it with several years of successful operations under their collective belts, all the while honing their business models, increasing revenue and growing their networks and customer base.
IT WORKS! That is why YourJet will start flying this summer with twin-engine, Mercedes-inspired turbo-diesel, propeller airplanes–the Diamond DA-42 Twin Star. Then, as the Diamond D-Jet begins production and delivery, we will add it to our fleet that is expected to number 33 aircraft by 2012.
Diamond Aircraft is the only general aviation manufacturer with a world-wide manufacturing presence–Europe–Asia–America–demonstrating their long term commitment to the market. But, most importantly, Diamond airplanes have the best safety record in general aviation. In short, Diamond Aircraft are durable, easy to fly, and safe. The company is visionary and its designs and materials are as practical and economical as they are groundbreaking and inspired. And they are some of the best-selling aircraft in the world.
YourJet is leading our emerging industry with its innovative model, perfect geographic location and strategic and informed choice of the Diamond Twin Star and D-Jet which are the most technologically advanced and economical general aviation aircraft available.
My thanks to Mark Fava for this enlightening post:
