Well i called LW and in his words he said, There is a skeleton group still working to get the funding, but he couldnt let me know if he was hopeful or not!

Far from being both the first and last paper airline with a website
Just this year, I have got to see
-FantasyAir (USA)
-Riviera (USA) and
-C.3000 mk2 (CDN) courtesy of former Canada 3000 staffers, who plan flying 757s with a tail c/s similar to Frontier.

Now airlines filed Bankruptcy/Receivership this week this week.
I believe their website reflects this.

It's incredible, isn't it?

They've gone bust (into receivership) yet they've obviously paid someone to re-design the livery!!

The livery shown on the website today is different to that which was on the original website.

On this basis, do they deserve to survive?

Hopefully if LW ever considers resurrecting NOW in some form or another, he will seriously look at who he employs as his managers. NG as former COO has a lot to answer for with this company. But then, he escaped early didn't he :confused:

And yes, the livery has always been the same.

I think LGS is probably referring to the colour scheme that originally appeared on the model aircraft they used at the press launch at LTN in March last year. This basically consisted of three large green letters spelling NOW covering the front half of the aircraft. I understand this changed very soon after.

Hopefully if LW ever considers resurrecting NOW in some form or anotherThis airline is no more.
It has ceased to be.
It's expired and gone to meet it's maker.
It's a stiff.
Bereft of life, it rests in peace.
If you hadn't nailed it to this forum it'd be pushing up the daisies!
It's commercial processes are now 'istory.
It's off the twig.
It's kicked the bucket.
It's shuffled off it's mortal coil, run down the curtain and joined the bleedin' choir invisible.
THIS IS AN EX-AIRLINE!!

Apologies to anyone who's lost money and/or jobs as a result of this mess (and to Monty Python), but can we move on now?

I still hope for NOW. I was briefly employed by them and they were inches close to getting started. I await some news to see I should really just give up, sell up and move to the sun...
