One wonders where the money actually originated.

Pilot and aircraft owner etc paid a fee, but Henderson was apparently making a living out of it as well. McKay paid Henderson, but doesn't sound the sort of character to have paid for it out of his life savings. So who was paying him even more for each of these flights ? Cardiff football club ? Sala himself ? Skimmed off the £15m "transfer fee" ?
