A former Memphis firefighter and paramedic is facing new federal criminal charges after taking family leave for alleged medical reasons last year when he actually was serving a five-month prison term in Arkansas. Terry M. Vickers, also a decorated veteran pilot with the Tennessee Air National Guard, pleaded guilty in May of last year in Oklahoma to falsely telling the Federal Aviation Administration he was qualified to fly Lear Jet and Gulfstream IV and V aircraft.
Customers then are guaranteed a 10-hour response time anywhere in the U.S. with a ride on one of 130 aircraft, from light jets like the Citation V, a medium jet or a heavy jet like the Gulfstream IV or V. Prices start at $3,750 per hour for a light jet to $7,850 for a heavy jet like a Falcon 50. The company also manages flight operations for St. Vincent Healthcare's fixed-wing air ambulance, plus physician outreach services for the region.
Atlantic to the Pacific, 49th parallel to the Yukon Territory. Otherwise called Canada. To adequately explore this enormous expanse - the world's second-largest country, encompassing 3.6-million square miles - requires weeks, if not months. What, on the other hand, if such an awesome trek were attempted in five days? A strapping team of modern-day explorers (OK, a handful of privileged writers) accepted the unique challenge. For transportation, we were provided with a sleek Gulfstream IV private jet (operating cost, $5,200 per hour) and a strict, if not grueling, itinerary that demanded double wake-up calls lest one get left behind in his long johns.
Ronkonkoma-based ExcelAire announced today it has added two new jets to its of private aircraft. The additions include a 12-seat Gulfstream IV-SP and an eight- passenger Hawker 800XP. The GIV-SP is a heavy jet with a range of 4,900 nautical miles and includes an on-board cabin attendant to provide in-flight service, while the smaller Hawker 800XP has a range of 2,540 nautical miles and includes a state-of-the-art entertainment system.
