The important thing is that no one must be invoiced for that flight.
Who has operational control? Mckay has said quite firmly several times that his company did not have operational control. That leaves Henderson having operational control and presumably his name is on the paperwork as having provided aircraft and pilot. Of course Henderson may have an entirely different view of the transaction, we don't know.
