What has gone on at Farnborough ? I hear that the CP has left Bookerjet and that the whole shop has relocated to London Bournemouth, is this true?

Hmmmm - I was in their office at Farnborough yesterday, and it doesn't look as if they are moving...
I gather that Peter Quigley was only an interim CP, and was always due to move on (a Citation X?)...there is a new CP in situ.
That's the way I heard it............

Anyone?

Hi KD
You might say that, I couldn't possibly comment!

I must be having conversations with a different Bookajet...I rang my personage at BookajetLand today, and they either a) aren't moving b) are moving but aren't telling anybody c) none of the above.
Confused

Hi Mzee, I must ring/visit and say hello............... Was just wondering why other operators are flying trips on BJs behalf,
not a rumour but big blue letters on the ops board.....thats ours not theirs.
I just cant help myself:p

Am I right in thinking that this 'rumour' has become (partially) true?
I understand that Bookajet have relocated all facilities (including the fleet) to SOUTHAMPTON.
Anyone know any more?

They moved into their own hangar (the number two hangar) at Southampton...nicer facilities - and lovely neighbours too.

Flat Spin, are you suggesting their time is up? Care to share why you think so?
Charter rates are "bargain basement" I hear. Does this have anything to do with it?
One last question.......What is Bookajet's ownership set-up these days? :suspect:

Wonder if they are buying some time - get the other operators to do their work and then don't pay them until there is spare cash available - that is if there ever is any left to pay those who have done the work!!? Worth being cautious?:(

What do You doom & gloom mongers ref. Bookajet base your pessimism on? It seems all bland statments with no offer of any reasons. (Incidently I do not work for them,but I do know who is financially backing them,& one could do alot worse,I assure You.)
2 of my flying colleagues with Bookajet are working their n*ts off at present.
So, I am not saying you ARE wrong,but could some reasons be provided? i.e. Something a little more detailed than "Tick-Tock"?
