Skihi,
Never heard of Air Care in Europe but there are a couple of companies by that name in North America. Medi vac and general/light commercial aviation seems to be thir areas. Have no idea if they have anything to do with flyglobespan.
Try googling Air Car.

Air Care were Pax Handling Agents for Globespan Check In & Arrivals Agents @ Bristol during a period of time through 2008.
However Servisair handled the Ramp & Dispatch of the aircraft 757.

Nice looking web site with all the usual airy fairy waffle promising the world, little real world stuff to give it any substance or credibility.
Is it anything to do with the defunct Aviation Support at BHX, I hear Aj was at BRS (would explain the BHX address). Apologise to all if I am wrong with this arm chair theory.

Consutant - Posh way of saying an RT radio from ops office to cock pit. Most handling agents have them as a required piece of kit (nothing fancy).
Aviation support handled X3, Flyglobspan, FlyWoosh and sky europe at bhx. The guy proved alot of people wrong by managing to start a handling agent at BHX however one day there was some kind of incident (the details I do not know) and the next day the airport allocated the contracts between the other three agents. The guy could talk the talk brilliantly but really struggled to do the walking bit, so I would advise caution.

SPROGSTON GREEN landside is not a posh way of OP,S to COCKPIT communications as landside is terminology for all areas outwith airport perimeter why caution?

Easy Tiger no need for capitals, I come in peace - I appreciate your correct in line with the meaning of landside areas however I cannot see what else it refers to. Some DCS systems have ability to send acars messages but I doubt this is what it refers to. Anyone else like to hazard a guess.
Re caution - select the advanced search function on this site and type in Aviation Support (search flight/ ground ops forum only). Read other people's posts and then feel free to come to your own conclusion.
Take Care
