Its beginning to read like a Three Little Pigs story - and then there were none.
What will the big bad wolf do then?

At the risk of stating the obvious, they are scheduled for scrapping in the absence of anyone wanting to buy them.

A potential customer could well change that situation, well in theory at least.

It would give him another excuse for not starting operations, "Someone scrapped those beauitful planes ..."

This has to be Photoshop?

Can't be true - can it? And if it isn't, surely it's fraud...

From the accompanying video:

"The aircraft is now set to fly to a new home where it will begin extensive refurbishment work"

Not much chance of being able to fool the world about that phase ...

Maybe someone on here who has the time and the inclination could contact Global claiming to be a photographer for an aviation magazine and ask where they need to go to photograph the aircraft.

[SOPS]

How long can this fantasy continue?

[ATNotts]

The very fact that Asquith has not sued anyone for allegations that have been made in this, and I suggest many other platforms probably tells you all you need to know about the alleged airline.

Any video isn't there now AFAICS, just the old Photoshop picture of an A380 in Global livery.

The video accompanies Asquith's post on his LinkedIn page, mentioned in the article linked in post #484.

Thanks David

'Linked In' for a MAJOR annoucement??? Yet, the last entry on their own website is 15th Nov?
If i see a third party photo of the machine in the air - then I'll say they got to first base.

It looks like the video on LinkedIn was taken at the A380 facility at Teruel in Spain. I thought his aircraft were supposed to be at Tarbes. There were some mugs on the site saying he was the best thing since sliced bread, oh dear.

Looks like Mojave to me - former JAL 777 in the background.

I was a mod on a couple of aviation-related groups on LinkedIn for a few years - that was a thankless task.

Are you lot still being a bunch of cynics?

The concept may need refinement, for example Gamer Class may need to return, and then the rest of the plane may need to be taken away just leaving desk and a PC and a copy of Flight Sim.

But apart from that I really can't see what could possibly go wrong.

I don't know what you mean ...

[atakacs]

they keep pushing their charade

You Tube



[PAXboy]

Another load of non-information. Zero about the company, Zero about progress. An artificial 'meeting' around a table with the people then saying nice things about the aircraft is nothing of relevance.

HiFly must be making some serious money out of this charade. I hope they've insisted on payment up front.
