Disappointed for the reflection on GA but perhaps not surprised !
Unfortunately, yes.
Apart from the alleged
"fraudulently producing aircraft documents"
There are also issues in respect of:
1. Tax (a lot of the payments were taken as 'cash in hand');
2. VAT (ditto, and not charged in some cases);
3. Aircraft flown in an uninsured and unairworthy state;
4. Actions unbecoming of a flight instructor and authorised flight examiner.
Moderators: All of the above can be proven.
I applaud the efforts of RM to provide cheap flying in a variety of aircraft which has enabled many to fly when it may not otherwise have been possible.
I deplore the methods used to achieve this ideal when the lives of pilots and passengers are put at risk through the negligence, inadvertence or indifference of a person with whom a great level of trust and respect has been placed by those who seek to use the aviation services provided.
