Thanks to a local flying school, I have also now seen the full page
Flight Training News article. For anybody who has been following this and related threads, there is little new to be gleaned, although the piece is (IMHO) well written and factual.
The article refers to the individual's previous non-aviation conviction and his subsequent name change, before moving on to aviation related matters. Mention is made of the earlier temporary suspension of the school's RTO and suggests that the recent revocation may be a 'first'. Reference is also made to the June 5th 2013 serious accident at Cranfield which is currently being investigated by AAIB, but doesn't indulge in speculation as to the cause of either the reported engine problems or the subsequent crash.
In closing, the article cites a claim by the school owner that he was intending to appeal the RTO revocation, and reminds readers that there is a CAA whistleblower phone number (01293 573190) should anybody have further information which may be of interest to the CAA.
In relation to the RTO revocation appeal, recent developments in terms of the closure of all three operating bases (Hinton, Cranfield and Sywell) and the on-going disposal of the aircraft, would suggest, in my view, that it is unlikely
Hinton Pilot Flight Training will re-emerge. It may also be worth mentioning that, in addition to the CAA phone number mentioned above, there is an e-mail route - see
Whistleblowing Report Form | Publications | About the CAA for further details.
