    North American Airlines To Lease Mark Cuban's 767-200

    North American Airlines to Add a Customized
    All-Business Class Aircraft to Fleet

    JAMAICA, N.Y. (Nov. 13, 2009) – North American Airlines, a subsidiary of Global
    Aviation Holdings, has entered into a letter of intent with MLW Air to lease and operate
    an all-Business Class Boeing 767-200 aircraft equipped with 100 luxurious seats, to be
    available early in 2010.
    “This aircraft has flown prime ministers, sports teams, corporate customers, rock
    bands and movie stars in premium comfort,” said Jeff Sanborn, Global Aviation
    Holdings’ chief marketing officer. “North American Airlines is proud to operate this
    unique aircraft and provide our customers an all-Business Class option for large group
    travel.”
    The wide-body aircraft features comfortable 2-2-2 fully reclining seating with 60
    inches of pitch. Customized in 2007 with the Nu-look Ergo interior, extra-large bin space,
    LCD television screens and in-seat power for laptops, the aircraft has a 10-hour range and
    extended twin engine operations (ETOPS) capability.
    “MLW Air designed this product from scratch to offer guests maximum luxury,
    while providing large groups with a cost per seat much lower than they’ll find on
    corporate aircraft charters,” said Martin Woodall, President of MLW Air, the owner of
    the aircraft. “We are excited to partner with North American Airlines to further enhance
    the global availability of the MLW Air luxury Boeing 767 aircraft.”
    North American Airlines’ recent customer list includes the Barack Obama
    Presidential campaign, the Hillary Clinton Presidential Primary campaign, White House
    media charters, corporations and several well known music groups and television
    personalities.

    I think it's used for Cuban when he needs it, and then he charters it out when he doesn't. If there is ever a conflict, he still has the 757 that his Mavericks use...or maybe he lowers his expectations, takes the charter money on his bird and charters a Gulfstream for himself. Poor guy.
