Here’s our new Board of Directors
STATEMENT FROM ANDREW TINKLER FOLLOWING HIGH COURT JUDGEMENT, FRIDAY 15 FEBRUARY
High Court Rules Stobart Directors Rigged AGM VoteStobart’s claims on ‘conspiracy’ and expenses rejected
Andrew Tinkler calls for Warwick Brady and fellow directors to resign
Following a two-week trial in November 2018, the Judge (HHJ Russen) has found that Iain Ferguson, Warwick Brady, Andrew Wood and John Coombs have breached their fiduciary duties to Stobart Group by using company funds to gerrymander a vote at the July 2018 AGM in their favour. The Judge ruled that all four directors had acted for “improper purposes” by trying to manipulate the vote.
Mr Tinkler said: “In light of the Judge’s findings, Mr Brady, Mr Ferguson, Mr Coombs and Mr Wood have no place on the Board of Stobart Group and they should all step down without further delay.”

Logistics firm Stobart Group on Friday welcomed a high court judgement which it claimed left it victorious in a fight with rebel shareholder Andrew Tinkler.

However, the judge rejected Mr Tinkler's argument the other directors "acted for the improper purpose of retaining their control of the company".He found they breached their duties by transferring 5.3m shares ahead of an Annual General Meeting, which it was claimed could have swayed the vote re-electing Mr Ferguson as chairman.However, the judge said they acted "with the company's best interests in mind" in doing so.

BMI have ceased trading. Are those who are vehemently opposed to the Virgin / Stobart deal willing to now consider the possibility that just maybe Flybe was damned lucky that there was somebody - anybody - out there to come to their rescue.

An Arizona-based commuter airline is backing a proposal to shore up the finances of Flybe, the struggling regional carrier, in a last-ditch effort to scupper a takeover led by Virgin Atlantic Airways.
Sky News can exclusively reveal that Mesa Air Group, which is headquartered in Phoenix, is part of a consortium which has tabled an offer to inject £65m of new equity into Flybe.

This proves there is God and will probably keep the Board out of prison.
We can now get Laffin and COW out, get Kohn in and start moving forward.
This is such good news for everybody.

Forgive my cynicism but what do Mesa bring to the table? If it were Air Nostrum riding in I might understand the logic more but other than slightly better buying power for new aircraft I can’t see the benefit for an airline flying under the banner of AA & UA working with different model and fleet thousands of miles away.

Ruthless credit card firms starved Flybe of £50m

Whatever happens, do the Flybe and flybmi models actually work any more? There seem to be simple economics at play. If you can fill the aircraft with the lowest seat/mile costs, then the route is viable. The tiny sub-market of small aircraft and higher fares for business users is marginal and likely to be swamped by a lo-co the minute the route shows any sign of volume demand. Do either bidders for Flybe aim to change the model to Lo-co or keep it staggering on as is?
