Apparently there is now only one Instructor left at EGHH - the CFI. The ops guy was finished recently and you are correct about the other flying instructors - no pay no work. This school charges students by payment upfront so theoretically there should funds to pay them. With no serviceable multi engine aircraft and the PA28's disabled by wheel removal there is no training happening at present anyway! The Ground School is operating normally but the flying students are waiting for some sort of resolution as they still have money tied up and cannot move on - what a horrid situation to be in. EPTA is at two locations and I am told there appears to be no interest in helping out the Bournemouth students by the other branch at Wycombe - charming!!
So it doesn't look good frankly. Obviously there is a large mess to sort out if it were to ever get going again - perhaps it might but who knows - don't hold your breath.
Please note that this info is from sources at both locations and may or may not be correct so don't shoot the messenger!
