As stated above, an excellent report by the AAIU. The whole Manx2 setup from the very start was an absolute shambles. As an outsider looking in on the company, I wouldn't have touched it with a barge pole. Where do the lawyers start? Every facet of this company, or collection of companies was at fault. You only have to look at the history of Manx2 to see something was wrong. Aircraft toppling onto one wing when taxying in high winds, supposed tyre burst which led to an aircraft undergoing extensive maintenance in Germany, and an aircraft trying to perfect one main undercarriage landings. Yet where were the responsible regulatory authorities? Hiding behind the Byzantine organisation called EASA. I defy anyone concerned with aviation not to sit agape when reading pages 150 onwards.
