Flightstore Response

Flightstore Response

Flightstore would like to thank everyone for their comments today on this forum and we are delighted to be able to set our customers minds to rest over this confusion.

Firstly, Flightstore have not now, ever or will ever give our customers details to ANYONE. We are happy to confirm that we did NOT give your details to LOOP magazine. So, obviously the confusion is "What Happened ?"

Flightstore is dedicated to this industry, in particular the stability and growth of Private Airfields and Schools which we all depend on.
Even though we are totally invloved in private aviation, we admit even we did not know about this very worrying situation of the change of status of airfield land that would allow an easier path to development and so resulting in the sale of our airfields.

We would like to thank LOOP publishing and their investigative journalism in bringing this situation to light.

LOOP approached us and made Flightstore aware of the situation and asked us for help.
In light of the potential damage this new law could inflict we agreed to send out an information bulletin by email to our vast database of pilots.
LOOP publishing sent to FLIGHTSTORE the email and we then sent that email to our users via the FLIGHTSTORE server.
At no time did we release your details to LOOP.

The reason why no mention was made that this was from Flightstore is that it was not a FLIGHTSTORE standard product email. We did not want to dilute the message. We only have 13 more days to make the government aware their is opposition to this law. We need to ACT NOW !!. The future of private aviation hangs in the balance. So far LOOP Publishing, the P.FA and Flightstore have attempted to make a stand against this development. We hope, now that we have explained what actually happened, we will gain the support of this magazine, FLYER, and the other pilot magazines who pertain to be supportive of our superb leisure activity.

We would like to wish LOOP good luck with the campaign and happy flying to all our customers.
