If the pitiful unknowledged original MAXjet management team wasn't sophomoric enough, now MORE airline ingenues are going to find out why two very, VERY worn 2nd generation 767-200's are going to be a literal albatross around their necks. The funny thing is, they plan on pandering themselves as a "luxury charter" anyone who has ever flown MAXjet knows they were nice, but far from luxurious. Besides they have really bad karma, that's going to pass right over to the new owners. :-) This venture is doomed from the start.

Few teams can afford the bird, and you can't get enough block hours per month on this kind of flying to overcome its costs. When they say they're going to fly sports teams, they're really saying. Charter us, please! Anybody! I expect they'll go for flying ACMI subservices for Latin American carriers on international routes (first/coach mix.)=. That's were I'd look for business first with these birds. B767 can’t make money flying college teams around.
