Robert Weaver - Beware

If you are considering using Robert Weaver's services, beware. His MO is very simple. During the quoting process he appears very efficient and this continues until the money is paid. The agreed timeline for the ferry then rapidly slips and he has a multitude of excuses lined up. Once you are in real trouble, as the aircraft has not left its destination, he forces you to find a replacement ferry company. he then retains at least half of the upfront fee, as you have "cancelled" the contract. Fraudulent, but very effective.
There are numerous law enforcement agencies after him, and it is only a matter of time before he gets his just deserves !!
In the meantime use a reputable company.

Ironically there's a single thread between this one and the sticky.

It matters not, how many threads are placed between this and the sticky, or even what those threads should say.

The fact, and what does matter, is that RW has demonstrated yet again that he is hanging on to his liberty by a very thin thread.

Seems to be a mixing of Orlando airports.

KMCO. Orlando International. Orlando's main airline airport.
KSFB. Orlando Sanford. Also an international airport. Used by UK charter airlines. This is where Starport is located. They're an FBO on the north side of the airport. Note that Sanford is misspelled in that Skyferry contact info Jetblu has listed.

and for completeness
KORL. Orlando Executive. Orlando's main GA airport.
X04. Orlando Apopka. An aerodrome to the NW of the city.

I met Mr Weaver last year with a friend who was trying to rescue another failed ferry.
He was living and operating in a caravan near Quimper in France.

Can't wait to talk to Signature KMCO. I'm involved with a company that leases Signature facilities there.

Following receipt of communication from the plank, he has said..

a/ Keep it up.
b/ Anti harassment order filed today.


In relation to (a) I'm happy to oblige.

Signature Flight Support at Le Bourget Aeroport have said......



Operations T1, LBG (SFS LBG) <[email protected]>
15:35 (1 hour ago)

to Nathalie, me
Dear Sir,

Unfortunately, we cannot help you with this inquiry because this company Sky Ferry is not based at Signature Flight Support. We don’t have any link with them and don’t rent them any office.

Kind regards,




Now, unless I'm mistaken, the French telephone number implies that Sky Ferry have an office at Le Bourget Aeroport.

Sky Ferry :: Contact


In relation to (b) I'm happy to oblige again and educate the plank in relation to Protection from Harassment Act 1997. The 1997 Act is very clear.

1 Prohibition of harassment.

(1)A person must not pursue a course of conduct—
(a)which amounts to harassment of another, and
(b)which he knows or ought to know amounts to harassment of the other.
(2)For the purposes of this section, the person whose course of conduct is in question ought to know that it amounts to harassment of another if a reasonable person in possession of the same information would think the course of conduct amounted to harassment of the other.
(3)Subsection (1) does not apply to a course of conduct if the person who pursued it shows—
(a)that it was pursued for the purpose of preventing or detecting crime,
(b)that it was pursued under any enactment or rule of law or to comply with any condition or requirement imposed by any person under any enactment, or
(c)that in the particular circumstances the pursuit of the course of conduct was reasonable.


Plank, read this...

(3)Subsection (1) does not apply to a course of conduct if the person who pursued it shows—
(a)that it was pursued for the purpose of preventing or detecting crime,

Not a bad plan, he's looking quite porky - 1200km could assist with that!
