As someone with no relation to IOM or EMX, I am inclined to agree with other posters on this topic and as a passenger I would be tempted to book elsewhere.
Techproblem,
What needs to be considered is that no one from EMX is defending the company. If the airline I worked for was to come under such adverse publicity they would be the first to pipe up and put people right (Ie they are contining to operate) This has not been the case and it does make one wonder why.
Out of interest how long do these aircraft checks take? There has been a EMX aircraft parked outside Flybe's hangar in Exeter for a week if not longer doing nothing. Surly with limited aircraft EMX would want the aircraft up and running asap (thats if of course they intend to return it to operations)
