Just to clarify the post titled Manxflyers. Firstly, Manx Flyers no longer exists.
Ravenair, have closed down their light aircraft training and handling operations on the Isle of Man. While handling is only compulsory for aircraft requiring access to the Main Apron, Rendez Vous are available as handlers.
Isle of Man Flight Training has suddenly appeared this week - seems to be a company riding on the back of Rendez Vous.
Two old features:
The first that the website of this 'new' flight training organisation displays the company name ‘Manx Airlines’ on its website. Unfortunately, this could be confused with the original and well-respected company – Manx Airlines itself. Which, looking at the Companies Registry is still an active company!
The other old feature is the name associated with Isle of Man Flight Training – Mr Murgatroyd (of Comed Aviation fame etc etc). Well - surprise, surprise!
