NetJets’ recently released annual letter to shareholders delivers some topical thoughts from the sage of Omaha, Warren Buffett. “A few years ago NetJets was my number-one worry – its costs were way out of line with revenues, and cash was haemorrhaging,” he outlined. “These problems are now behind us.” NetJets delivered $227 million in pre-tax earnings last year, up $20 million from 2010.

- 2012 A Pivotal Year for European Business Aviation Business aviation faces many challenges, and with a host of new EU legislation, the industry expects more to come. So now is the time to be proactive. This was the message during the European Business Aviation Association’s (EBAA) Annual General Meeting held yesterday in Brussels at Eurocontrol headquarters. As emphasized by EBAA CEO Fabio Gamba, European decision-makers must recognize the circumstances of aviation. Business aviation in particular is trying to make a healthy recovery after the difficult years following the worldwide economic crisis. It does so, however, in the face of new political hurdles and rising operating costs. These include a worrying proliferation of national taxes, a burdensome EU ETS, a faulty Single European Sky due to the lack of Member States’ political will, a recast of the slots regulation that deprives business aviation of historical rights under current form, and other important initiatives in domains such as ground handling, noise, and Community Guidelines on State aids at regional airports. “We fully expect to take up our responsibilities as respected members of the European airspace community,” said Rodolfo Baviera, EBAA Chairman.

Grooving the runway at Lyon-Bron is a first for France’s business aviation airports since French Civil Aviation standards do not include grooving. It is therefore not mandatory. Having just joined the National Business Aviation Association (NBAA) and in an effort to break into the UK and US markets, Lyon-Bron is adapting and improving its offer for international operators. The JAR OPS rules (standards concerning the certification and operation of aircraft) specify that aircraft must come to a stop within 60% of the available runway length and in wet weather, the distance required for aircraft to land and brake is increased by 15%. These two rules are highly restrictive for airlines when it comes to choosing their airports. The FAA grooving standard allows these airlines to disregard the 15% increase for landing on wet runways. This will mean that a wider range of aircraftwill be able to land at Lyon-Bron airport, whatever the weather. More information visit – www.lyonaeroports.com
“But we are also working with legislators and regulators to ensure that the measures put in place help boost the European economy, not weaken it.” “We may be facing headwinds, but that means we must push harder against them. We must demonstrate the significance of our industry. And we must use our expertise and influence to assist politicians and regulators as they weather the global crisis,” stated Fabio Gamba, EBAA CEO. Another important initiative includes business aviation's campaign to curtail illegal charter flight activity within Europe. It aims to discourage the operation of aircraft without a valid Air Operator’s Certificate (AOC) or which are non-compliant with traffic rights. EBAA has published guidance for operators, brokers, passengers, politicians, authorities and regulators. Additionally, it was a recent guest presenter at the European Commission where it won the commitment of national inspectors and EASA to work together to devise solutions to prevent and repress illegal flights. “Twenty-twelve is a pivotal year for our industry. There are many tough choices to make and challenges to face,” Fabio concluded, “and we – the collective we of industry and government – must do so sensibly and wisely.” More information visit - www.ebaa.org.

Much of these gains were attributable to both NetJets and FlightSafety, Buffett said. Meanwhile, NetJets appears poised for further expansion outside the US, with Buffett saying, “NetJets is proceeding on a plan to enter China with some first-class partners.”
