What The Heck Is V-bird

[Flyrad]

Anyone know what the deal with the V-Bird is? It's been sitting at the north end of YYZ for weeks now and ther website is only the intro page:

 

www.vbird.com

 

What do they do?

V-Bird is a new carrier operating out of Niederrhein, Germany just across the Dutch border.

 

Company is going to be modelled along the lines of Jet Blue.

 

I imagine the start up is taking a bit longer than anticipated.

 

They are going to be operating under the OC of my company DutchBird and we are going to train their people. They are also wet leasing one of our A320's.

 

They are a separate company from Dutchbird- we only have a business arrangement with them.

Any idea who the main players are? DoM, DFO etc?

 

corrected real dumb typo

Sorry what I posted is all I know.

 

Start work again tomorrow after three weeks holidays.

 

When I find out any more I'll post it here.

[Eric Janson]

First flight is scheduled for October 27th from Niederrhein.

 

CEO is Roberto Stinga

DFO is Ad Storken(sp?)

 

I'm scheduled to go there on Oct 30th to do more line training. I'll try and post some pictures.

 

The web site is up and running.
