While doing some research for a course I'm creating, I came across this: Aviation ? ORBITAL ACCESS
It seems that Orbital Access are looking to set up an airline as well, canvassing for usage on some routes.

I hope the student gets a high mark for the project then, since he or she has gone to some length to substantiate the project by a) registering a company (https://beta.companieshouse.gov.uk/company/SC512473) and b) getting the FT to write about it (https://www.ft.com/content/a9d0600a-...5-23ef563ecf9a.

No serious business sets up a website and has a business model asking where you want to fly to. If you have to ask, you’re not serious. Please grasp at this straw.

The new kid on the block | HeraldScotland
Then things started going awry:
Airport bid partner in debt case | HeraldScotland
But there was then a money making opportunity:
Flights to QUADRUPLE as airfield owner slams council for 'ten years of stonewalling' on homes plans | Salisbury Journal
Anyone know anything about Canadian Matthew Chance Hudson? Years ago he was known as the ‘angel’ who saved Prestwick airport although he doesn’t seem to like anyone asking him questions ‘off plan’ and, according to the article from Herald Scotland, is happy to call in lawyers if anything is published without his veto. His fingerprints are all over Old Sarum Airfield too.
Worth reading the comments at the end of the Salisbury Journal article too; clearly shows very strong public opinion.

Looks like PIK losses narrowing as a result of an increase in military and refuelling. Sounds like thats the (only) direction they should pursue. Still huge government medalling and no word on any potential buyer.
Wonder what the story will be this time next year....

Avoiding the obvious political answers of protecting jobs... why is PIK still going without attracting any other airlines to work with them? Surely in a slot-constrained world, there should be plenty of options for new entrants to work with and fit into their schedules.
There must be a point when even the government says 'Enough is Enough'

I wonder if as a condition of any sale, a private buyer may insist the Scottish Gov takes the passenger terminal on and closes it allowing the viable non Ryanair operation to right size and continue? Without that liability I can see a sale and a future, taking on the grand old lady from 1964, I just see a crying need for even more Capex!
I mean BA do most of their short haul hangared maintenance in Sofia so Ryanair have it easier popping over from DUB or GLA. Cargo goes forward without the costs of the passenger operation.
