Lombok Institute of Flight Technology - LIFT
Below is a link to a website showing the flights that LIFT have flown over the last 2 months since we were fired. This information completely contradicts what PK-JACK has stated in this forum.

“Various maintenance flights (both local,and to the nearby island of Sumbawa
Besar) have been completed with exceptional results”
What results ? Only one out of the threeaircraft has been flown since the instructors grounded the aircraft. The ‘Spidertracker’website clearly shows that only PK-LLA has flown since 7th December.PK-LLB and PK-LLC are not even at the airport. They were ‘trucked’ to the company’s hangar at the closed ‘Selaparang Airport’ in December and they have remained there ever since. Also a round trip to Sumbawa at an average of 90 kts indicated airspeed takes approximately 2 hours. The longest flight listed on the ‘Spidertracker’ is only 1 hour 10 minutes.

“For everyone else reading this, I would personally like to confirm no problems longer exist with the aircraft. A numerous amount of test flights have been undertaken on the aircraft, with highly experienced engineers, one of which actually on the team of initial engineers who helped to design the aircraft, and consultations with TCM (theXL2 engine manufacturer), have confirmed that the aircraft are performing at exceptional levels”
How can you state that the aircraft are performing at exceptional levels when only one of the XL2’s has been flown ?There has not been numerous test flights as you state as the majority of these nine flights have been performed with a local instructor and students.

“All of them issues have now been fixed,and 12 flights over 1 1/2 weeks have taken place flawlessly”
There has been only 9 flights since 7th December 2012 and they have all been in PK-LLA. The other two aircraft (PK-LLC and PK-LLB) were ‘trucked’ to the company’s hangar and have not been flown once since 7th December.
In one of your posts, you quote...
Regardless of the issue, keeping to the truth is always the best idea in any issue/debate. That way, the public will not be misinformed with any false information.
....You should really take your own advice and keep to the truth yourself so that potential students and instructors are not given false information about the operation at LIFT
