I met a friend last week who is close to breezy (ex RAF) - "allegedly" they have no owners yet

Let's see:
Nobody has posted anything here to suggest there are any sales to date; the company has been big on PR, boasting about 2000 pilot CV's being received, it has talked of shiny aircraft due, smart liveries, 14 pilots being given contracts, being "ahead of sales expectations", expecting to be flooded with work over Easter, offering travel agencies commission etc., ...but it has chosen not to release one supportive fact that these fractions are actually selling, or at least that cards are being sold aplenty. Strange, that!

If you're actively pumping out PR every month, why not do the one PR statement that would prove that people are opening their wallets, to encourage others that they're missing out by waiting?

After 9 months and over £2m of costs, I guess they must have sold some ...14 crew = 6 aircraft = 36 owners needing to be convinced.

I am sure they will have signed at least 20 by now.
