October 11, 2010
FLYMYJETS is a French company of business aviation, created in November 2009. Its concept allies the advantages of the business aviation to the pleasure of flying. To adhere to the club involves to acquire, altogether or partially, a Cessna Citation Mustang jet: if the investment can seem high, this service shows itself more competitive than the business class of an airline. FLYMYJETS offers to travel in the cabin or to fly the jet, in the left seat like a captain, right from the first flight!
The idea: the passenger takes the controls and realizes child's dream.
FLYMYJETS was created by Louis-Antoine Harlé, captain and flight instructor on business jets. By seeing shining the eyes of the clients on visit in the cockpit, the future entrepreneur understood that piloting stayed a firm child's dream, even for the frequent travelers. Tired of the public transports constraints, they are attracted by the business aviation but numbers of them would rather be in the cockpit than in the cabin.
Other report, if the small jets are used for business trips, they are also chartered for the week-ends with the family on board, the space in the cabin is then limited. By using one of the pilot seats, the owner frees a seat in the cabin! The cost by seat is now reduced.
Training is in the heart of FLYMYJETS offer. A personalized training program, according to his envy, his schedule and his aeronautical knowledge is adapted to every single owner. Selected on criteria of availability and helpfulness, the pilots-instructors of FLYMYJETS arise of the most prestigious flying schools in the world. The student pilot can pursue the training up to the type rating certificate to be able to fly his jet solo or prefer to continue to fly with his instructor.
« Take control of your jet safely, it's possible. Dare your dreams. By creating Flymyjets, I want to offer a unique and fascinating experience. » promises Louis-Antoine Harlé.
To the advantages of business aviation; flexibility, profitability, productivity; FLYMYJETS adds the passion. The airplane, which is part of the everyday life of companies, is not any more separated from the notion of pleasure.
The concept: beyond the private aviation, the privative aviation.
FLYMYJETS applies the principle of the fractional ownership, excluding the chartering of the jets to other clients, as it is often practiced. In order to protect the aircraft interior, only the owners have access to the fleet.
The exchange system between co-owners gives access to the all fleet and offers a maximal availability. This formula reduces considerably fixed costs and makes of FLYMYJETS the most realistic offer of the market.
The technical and administrative follow-up allows to protect the investment up to the resale of the aircraft: the maintenance is assured by the manufacturer, insurance contracts cover the slightest incidents.
Louis-Antoine Harlé totally rethought the quality commitments of service of the business, so that every journey is privileged and memorable: daily management of the aircraft, organization of the trips, services on board according to the tastes and the imperatives of everyone, without forgetting the training à la carte.
The jet: Cessna Citation Mustang, the most effective of Very Light Jets.
First captain-instructor on Cessna Citation Mustang in Europe, Louis-Antoine Harlé chose to constitute a fleet only consisted of this model.
With a reasonable acquisition cost, the lowest operating cost of the range of multi-engines jet airplane, unequalled performances and autonomy, this model stood out as the most effective twin-engines entry level jet.
The affordable use of a private jet does not imply that the comfort and the safety are neglected. Equipped with the latest generation equipments, the Mustang takes advantage of the experience of the manufacturer: Cessna, the first producer of jets in the world.
Whether it's a business tool or recreational vehicle, the Mustang will not disappoint: four large seats, executive tables, Internet connection, power and Ipod plug-in. With a true jet speed of at least 630km/h and a landing distance of less than 1000m, the Cessna Citation Mustang will take you anywhere across Europe : Paris-Marseille in 1h10, Nantes-Strasbourg in 50 minutes, Venise in 1h25.
Jets are based on the Toussus-le-Noble airfield but can take off and land on any other airport.

« When I was a child, I wanted to become an airline pilot. Life decided otherwise. I quenched all the same this passion at the age of 30 by learning how to fly small planes. But quickly, I did not progress any more. I flew less and less and I quit. Then, when I discovered the offer of Flymyjets, I hurried. They taught me instrument flying (IFR), then I got my multi engines rating and finally my Citation Mustang type rating. World seen from flight level 340 is marvelous! » Laurent B., owner and pilot of his Cessna Citation Mustang.
