Thats all folks!

Global eagle have now shut down their web site and so it would appear that it is now all wrapped up. Appart from this thread there is nothing to show it even ever happened. Would of been nice to get some for of closing statement. Now nobody will ever know what happens and it can all be brushed under the carpet. No statement of where all the money went or anything. No thank you to all the supporters. No explanation of why money was collected for a flight that never could of happened.
I suppose we will just have to keep an eye on the press for a picture of Global eagle handing big cheques over to The Red Cross, NSPCC and Dyslexia Institute. I am sure everybody will aggree that these are very worthy causes and fully deserve the money that was donated to and raised for them. Well done lads.
Since raising money for charity was one of the reasons this expedition was allowed to go ahead, perhaps donating the royalties from the forthcoming book would be a noble way of demonstrating
the level of commitment felt and the sincerity you have in what you say and do.
