West - Penn Air is a virtual charter service, operated out of the New Castle Municipal Airport in New Castle, Pennsylvania. WPA has been serving the VA community for 4 years now, and is still running strong. We have a smaller, friendlier atmosphere than our larger counterparts. Our philosophy is all together different also, we would rather operate with 5 people that get to know one another and become friends with a common flying interest, than 100 people that are just a number. One of our goals is growth, we do like the small atmosphere, but growing our fleet is important. As a business student, WPA's CEO, uses this VA as a business model, that can relate to his coarse of study. With that in mind, the financial aspect is another major way that we are set apart from others. Being modeled after a real charter service that he has work experience with, the business is done almost exactly how it would be in the real world. We pay necessary bills (insurance, hangar rent, utilities, etc.). The way we get our flights is also a little different, we have a rolling system, that was developed by the Vice President. This "rolling" system, randomly rolls for 10 digit numbers, tell you a code of what airports we need to fly to. If we have 12 flights in a given month and only 10 flights are flown, then we lose business for the next month, if they do get done, then we gain business. Most importantly it's about sharing the fun of an exciting hobby, with other people around the world. We pride ourselves on the realism of WPA, and would like to invite anyone interested who can help us maintain our standard, to click on the link to join.
