rubish
Its A rumour network, we still have the office just moved a few files out to our other office, the baron belongs to us and it was not blocked in the is total rubish its actually having an annual at the moment.


Mark come on, let me assert another rumour: the other office to which you refer is your flat, and you won't have that for much longer if you bounce your rent cheques there too! Hopefully Mum and Dad will still take you in, or have you burned your bridges there too?

First time I heard of an annual inspection being carried out on an apron with the aircraft shrouded by trucks!

If you are the owner of such a successful enterprise why don't you just pay your pilots, employees and others who are owed money, then all these awful "rumours" will be truly unfounded? Simple really.

How's the Ferrari running these days?!!

Got any more roobish to uncover?

At last!

Was beginning to feel left out! but just in nick of time, recieved this from MD.

Re: rubish
Oh mr prop,
Thats all we needed you have just stated liable which will be taken further you should have checked the real facts, have a nice day.


Must be honest here, this was in response to a personal message from him to me, I was forthright in my opinions of him and operations.

Can private conversations be liabalous then ? lol


But just pleased to be in the " I've been threatened by Unique club " !! Lots of members now I think ? lol

Libel

Prop. It'll be interesting where the action against you will be issued. Bearing in mind some of us are about to lose our homes, or already have done, I'm not sure where the Unique Air solicitors will write to us! Still you can look forward to your day in court at their expense if it ever came to that, which I doubt very much indeed. Of course, in order to prove your statements you would need to ask a few pertinent questions of the Managing Director, who would have to perjure himself if he claimed the pilots were all paid on time, that the charts were all up to date, and that he himself hasn't been trying to libel us to potential employers.

To be honest I think you are quite safe drawing a line under Unique and walking away. I'm still going to issue proceedings for my wages, and I know a good many others are also. I mean, it's the principle isn't it!

I wouldn't mind seeing the photos, can you post them on here?

Is the aircraft still there on the apron blocked in then, as the director claims otherwise - he says it's having it's maintenance check carried out, there again he seems to have a few conflicting stories here.

Good grief

Is this still going! Im impressed by the amount of deciept and bull that one person can create I have to say.
If people require other infomation for there case I have no probs giving what I know, I have been chatting to the CAA regarding previous discussions on here. Just remember If you need to get your money you can go not for just MD but registered directors too
If not the owner of that G-WWIZ? Is the owner not going to be off when he wants his plane?

Seeing as the only registered Directors when the non-payment took place were MD and his Dad I think that's a bit unfair, the real money sits with MS (I am led to believe) and he has no legal responsibility.

I can't help thinking that any court action would just bring around the winding up of the original company as they now have established more companies.

If this is the case you will have to prove wrongful trading if you want to go for the directors personally.

Directors

Phil, while I agree on the one hand I'm sure the legal bodies that govern my industry would not allow that as a reason, the directors are there for a reason legally and otherwise.

If the other director(s) have knowledge of what is going on then they are responsible, if not more so, the onus is on them in any court of law to provide the information to dispute or acknowledge the facts.

Best thing for everyone in the flying community is not to have anything to do with this guy full stop and the current climate of feeling towards him should perhaps show people including his father that the guy has no idea how to treat people, run a business legally or otherwise

As I have said before in post CPL/IR euphoria people get taken in and is unfair on them to get into more trouble financially just because there aspirations have outweighed there bank balance while trying to get there career of the ground. We are after all not talking just about a dodgy character who be-littles, threatens and lets be honest tries to intimidate (ha ha ha ha) we are talking about other peoples lives, money, families and from the sounds of it houses. The shoe should be on the other foot for once

Anyway gripe over, happy flying all

Ah the "Find me if you can" approach. Excellent start to a new enterprise!

I wonder what impression he is trying to create by being so smug about moving his office where nobody can find it, and by constantly changing and registering new companies. In today's highly competitive market the consumer isn't a blind man on a galloping horse, nor is the employee for that matter, as it turns out.

What's the Swansea latest? Is there still a BE58 on the ground?

Which makes a mockery of his claim to have gone to a Welsh speaking boarding school in Brecon. Considering he would have been in the same year there as my brother.

A story up there with the 6000 Triple 7 and the Lambo. Sorry for the thread creep, but I'm sure the rest of you have some pearlers as well!

G-WWIZ

I have noticed that MD has the baron up for sale, went up 4 days ago on an aircraft sales website.
It's listed as having a fresh annual and prop o/h's done. Don't suppose he's re-registering the aircraft on another register to avoid a lein? They're (or at least used to be) registration dependant.

As I said before go for the other director, the address is readily available and may shake someone into doing something, don't require MD's address, although thats easily obtained to, internet is a wonderful thing
