So, the Industry norm is 1.5 crews per airframe, why has he employed air crew for 10 aircraft? Even if the grand plans do turn up in the form of a couple of Kingairs (it is Kingairs this week isn't it?), why would anyone set up with an unsustainable overhead before the ability to deliver any product?
Surely the whole rationale behind the ilegal flights is to get some clients and revenue to fund the "going legit" process.
I'm obviously far too stupid to understand why this is smart.
