Please explain what your statement has to with Manx2. The pilots were not employed by Manx2 and the aircraft was not anything to do with Manx2 whilst operating the Post Office flights that required the seats to be removed. The owner of the aircraft made the arrangements for the Post Office flights, not Manx2. The operator of the aircraft was responsible for the Crew rostering and adherance to flight time limits, not Manx 2.
Air Lada - Owner.
Flightline - Operator (Sub-lessor and AOC holder).
Manx2 - Ticket seller.

Flightline confirmed it had no contact with Manx2. Some of Flightline's operational responsibilities were being inappropriately exercised by Air Lada and Manx2.com - The report confirmed this.

The CAA clapped them round the ears for acting like an airline when they were not, dressing Air Lada pilots up in Manx2 uniforms again trying to be like an airline.

In the weeks prior to the crash a third flight on peak days had been added on the BHD-ORK-BHD route.

Flightline who were the AOC holder provided charts, flight briefing facility's and rosters. Again they had no contact with Manx2.

Air Lada must have been the company who had agreed to the postal charter. That wasn't clarified in the report.

Beg's the question who was messing with the rosters when the third weekly flight was added? Air Lada? They couldn't they simply owned the aircraft and paid the pilots. Flightline were being used for there facilities and AOC. Manx2 (Citywing) is the real root of the problem in my opinion.
