Pittair Virtual airline

It was a turbulent summer/Autumn for Pittair and I'm glad to say we weathered the storm and Pittair is now happy to announce the resumption of the order of new aircraft for the fleet but unfortunately it's not as many as we would of hoped for as the order has been cut from 6 to 3 but im looking forward to adding to the fleet, a message for the spotters and eagle eyed public 4 of our aircraft have disappeared but don't panic this is planned, G-PITR is undergoing conversion to a freighter in Frankfurt, G-PITQ is having her wings modified and winglets added to the wing to make it more fuel efficent, G-PITW is away at the moment having "sharklets" added for better fuel efficancy, and also G-PITD Is away having wing modifications.

On the withdrawal front I can announce that G-PITB 737-500 is scheduled to be withdrawn in the first quarter of 2016 along with MD-10-10 N1010PC, the MD-10-10 is being replaced with 767-200F G-PITR as soon as the latter is ready 

Looks like a very bright new year for Pittair 

As this is the last update before the end of the year I'd like to take this opportunity to wish all of our clients, business partners and customers a Merry Christmas and a happy new year

All the best folks

Pittair and Pittair Cargo Virtual Airlines (2)

 NOTICE FROM THE BOARD

Its Been a turbulent Summer for Pittair's passenger airline with the crash of oil prices in late August the airline took a huge hit as the price of aviation fuel rocketed, and Pittair being a new airline trying to make its way in a highly competitive industry felt the hit the hardest, between the 15th of August and the 23rd of August, Pittair Passenger flights were Suspended due to lack of funds, Thankfully Thomson Airlines and Thomas Cook arranged with Pittair to supply Passengers who had tickets to fly back to the UK with Pittair Flights back home,

Due to financial Decline Pittair are making cost cutting measures to ensure the future of this family Low-Cost Airline However Redundancy's were inevitable and the has already put on hold the order we had to purchase a number of Boeing 737-600s to bolster the currently aging fleet and have had to put on hold the withdrawal of our Boeing 737-500.

At present the Passenger airline division of Pittock airlines T/A Pittair is unaffected but i would urge all passengers flying with us this quarter to check with the airline, whether that be by telephone or through our website, please check before you travel as the closure of the passenger airline division is not impossible due to the declining financial position of the airline.

Hopefully Pittair can weather this storm and come out booming but a uncertain near future is the reality but its not all over yet obviously every effort will be made to keep the passenger airline running but due to the Strict H&S laws as well as the stringent FAA & CAA Inspections of fleet maintenance and reliability and safety and if that cant be maintained then obviously we will have no choice but to cease passenger operations but lets hope thats not the case

Have a great autumn and hopefully Pittair will be back to how it was.

Good Day
