Source: fly-corporate.com
FlairJet, London Oxford Airport's new private jet charter operator, will be the first to put the Phenom 100 on the UK 'G' register.
The company's two aircraft (G-DRBN and G-SRBN), following inspection by the UK CAA's Head Surveyor, are due to arrive into Oxford by mid to late October.
Chief Executive Officer, Captain David Fletcher, is currently undergoing type-rating in Dallas, while two other newly recruited pilots are training at Burgess Hill with CAE. In the run up to commercial launch the company has named two new management positions: Mike Chamberlain, Ground Operations Director and David Taylor, Operations Manager, both ex Jet Options managers. They join Flight Operations Director/Chief Pilot Gerry Rolls, who will also be a training captain on the Phenom. FlairJet, backed by three London-based QCs, are managing these two entry level jets from a third party, prior to the arrival of their first purchased aircraft in 2012.
