After being ridiculed by an angry Congress and the media for using company jets to fly to DC to beg for money, one of the Big 3 automakers is already cutting back on the use of private jets. GM which had 7 jets now has "only" 5 though 2 had already been returned
in Sept. as part of a cost cutting plan.
It looks like this might be a trend for private companies in all the business sectors. Usually corporate flight departments are the first
areas to get sacked when money gets tight. I have already heard about a number of companys eliminating or downsizing their flight
departments which include both fixed wing and helicopters. They will now fly commercial like the rest of us peasants :lol:, cut down
drastically the use of the aircraft or charter instead of owning outright.
We shall see.
