Brookfield Aviation International Limited`s accounts for year ended 31 January 2015, filed at Companies House show:

Principle Activities : Provision of air crew services to the aviation industry.
£
Sales 119,106,108
Purchases 117,562,666

Gross Profit 1,643,442

So their business is to buy and sell air crew services. They have bought it for £117562666 and sold it for £119106108. Bit like buying bunches of bananas, wrapping them up in blue uniforms, sticking shiny little wings on the breast pockets and flogging them off to the various airlines.

As the wages excluding the directors are only £176,497, the payments described as purchases are not salaries/wages to air crew.

Now I don`t suppose any taxman is going to be happy sitting in the back of one of these planes with some kind of a bloke resembling a banana wrapped up in blue tissue, as the pilot of the aircraft taking him to a G20 meeting to squash tax dodging.
