WHY PURCHASE A PART INTEREST IN AN AIRCRAFT?
The best
reason is that if you don't need the use of an
aircraft every day why pay for one every day? Also,
it is easier to get in and easier to exit. Selling
25% of stock in an aircraft is a lot easier than
finding someone who can purchase 100%. The
management company is always marketing and locating
individuals who are interested in buying 25% of an
aircraft. Ask them to sell you shares and you pay
only a 10% fee or sell it yourself and you are
charged nothing.
HOW CAN MORE THAN ONE PERSON USE THE SAME AIRCRAFT?
The
management company has several aircraft available to
cover usage conflicts. the web site will indicate
where your aircraft is, who is flying it and the
days of availability for that month, or any number
of months in advance until the end of that year.
The management company scheduler is on duty 24/7,
and will always try to cover any conflicts using
your own aircraft. The scheduler/ dispatcher can try
to adjust flight times and routes to accommodate
both owners. When this just isn't possible, you can
book another of the managed aircraft. This is the
fairest way we know to handle these situations and,
in practice, it just doesn't happen that much.
WHY DOES CARIBEX
OFFER ONLY USED AIRCRAFT?
The market
availability of excellent pre-owned Jet aircraft is
currently high offering excellent values to the
buyers. Aircraft are maintained under continuous
airworthiness programs that insure remarkable
safety. parts and engines are changed out regularly.
Any used Jet aircraft that has been properly
maintained is just as safe and perhaps even safer
than one right off the assembly line. Any group of
owners who indicated an interest in acquiring a new
aircraft would certainly be accommodated in any
event.
WHAT
ADVANTAGES DOES
CARIBEX
OFFER ME THAT ONE OF THE LARGER
FRACTIONAL MANAGEMENT COMPANIES DOES NOT ?
Aside from our far
fairer management program and considerably lower
costs, we only hire the best pilots, all our flight
crews are 5000 hour plus ( including the co pilots)
and we pay them enough not to leave for an airline
job. Many of them are retired airline pilots with
20,000 plus hours Our captains are not spending
cockpit time training co pilots. Your aircraft has a
crew hired only for that aircraft You will always
fly with the same crew and they will know you and
your family and associates. They know what kind of
catering you like and will have your favorite papers
and magazines on board. The aircraft are maintained
by the same mechanics all the time. They are based
at your local airport and maintained there. The
mechanics know their aircraft and this is a big
advantage. Our aircraft do not spend 50% of their
time flying all over the country to pick up owners.
All our owners live in the local area. You can come
out and see your aircraft , show it to your friends
and family When you fly, you only pay for fuel and
reserves. No hidden charges. |
