Well said Jenkins. Euromanx have been operating wholly foreign aircraft/crews since they started operting out of IOM, no locals can be employed. If you read the companies submission to the CAA (and its a NI registered company), they say no alternative is available hence the need for flagging... I say bollocks to Woodgate Aviation, get your act together, and to the CAA, hang your heads in shame...
As for Eastern, how long are they going to persist using foreign barbie jets? Why does the CAA not tell them to get their own now they have operated them for over a year (2?), but at least they employ lots of UK crew etc, and looks like they are getting more routes into IOM, Liverpool to the rock seems on the cards.
