The problem was not so much the operation , the guys have done a great job getting this company in the air , nor casa , nor any other factor that can be attributed to the guys at the coal face. Another disturbing item is mentioned in page 3 of the report. It states that the contract with AAE was calculated on the basis of break even or a slight loss. To be profitable the company required third party charter flights. So , with its aircraft tied up with AAE the company stood no chance of survival in the first place . To expect third party work for these aircraft - presumably only on a Friday , Sat , Sun and hang your whole future on it seems dodgy.

You may wish to rephrase your second para deleted. W
