Hello all

Erm, perhaps people are reading far too much into what was meant to be a light hearted article. I am sorry if people are reading the words "wot i rote" and jumping to (wrong) conculsions.

The Company operates to the same standards as any other AOC approved operator, and complies fully with all applicable minima's etc.

Following the speculation of the fraggle rock route starting in Jul, are we to presume that the single flight with the papers was it?

What next for the budgies then? - it would seem that even when they are let out of the cage, they don't want to fly. My Gran had a budgie like that....then it got eaten by a cat.

Perhaps your implication that you can land when no when else could was not the best sentence in your story. It may seem light hearted to you but such rash comments will bring the spotlight onto your embryonic operation.

Update

Hello all.

Sorry for the lack of info, but personal problems have kept me occupied for the last few weeks.

As I have said in the past, the most important item for the long term goals of the operation has been to resolve the crew training problems.

To that end we have been putting the resources into solving that and, hopefully, after the CAA check ride next week will have resolved the problem so that we will be able to train up additional pilots to give us sufficient crews to start on contract work.

Rgds JAN OPS 1

PS After all the comments I have decided to give up my career as a comedy writer.
