Robert Weaver - Beware

[Contrail 39]

If you are considering using Robert Weaver's services, beware. His MO is very simple. During the quoting process he appears very efficient and this continues until the money is paid. The agreed timeline for the ferry then rapidly slips and he has a multitude of excuses lined up. Once you are in real trouble, as the aircraft has not left its destination, he forces you to find a replacement ferry company. he then retains at least half of the upfront fee, as you have "cancelled" the contract. Fraudulent, but very effective.
There are numerous law enforcement agencies after him, and it is only a matter of time before he gets his just deserves !!
In the meantime use a reputable company.

[SLFguy]

Ironically there's a single thread between this one and the sticky.

[deptrai]

And that thread in between is ‘search before posting'...

[Jetblu]

It matters not, how many threads are placed between this and the sticky, or even what those threads should say.

The fact, and what does matter, is that RW has demonstrated yet again that he is hanging on to his liberty by a very thin thread.

[Jet Jockey A4]

With all the report about this guy over the years, I'm surprised that no one as killed that little p:mad:k yet!

[Evanelpus]

The man is pure Teflon, do you think he gives regularly to the South Yorkshire Police fund?

[FerrypilotDK]

Contrail....did you do any research at all before handing money to RW?

[Jetblu]

It has come about that I have a new legal action to instigate with our friend.

Firstly, does anyone know where he is?

Are the following addresses legit offices. ie not just a forwarding postal address.

Seems to be a mixing of Orlando airports.

KMCO. Orlando International. Orlando's main airline airport.
KSFB. Orlando Sanford. Also an international airport. Used by UK charter airlines. This is where Starport is located. They're an FBO on the north side of the airport. Note that Sanford is misspelled in that Skyferry contact info Jetblu has listed.

and for completeness
KORL. Orlando Executive. Orlando's main GA airport.
X04. Orlando Apopka. An aerodrome to the NW of the city.

[cessnapete]

I met Mr Weaver last year with a friend who was trying to rescue another failed ferry.
He was living and operating in a caravan near Quimper in France.

Can't wait to talk to Signature KMCO. I'm involved with a company that leases Signature facilities there.

[Jetblu]

Following receipt of communication from the plank, he has said..

a/ Keep it up.
b/ Anti harassment order filed today.


In relation to (a) I'm happy to oblige. :)

Signature Flight Support at Le Bourget Aeroport have said......



Operations T1, LBG (SFS LBG) <[email protected]>
15:35 (1 hour ago)

to Nathalie, me
Dear Sir,

Unfortunately, we cannot help you with this inquiry because this company Sky Ferry is not based at Signature Flight Support. We don’t have any link with them and don’t rent them any office.

Kind regards,




Now, unless I'm mistaken, the French telephone number implies that Sky Ferry have an office at Le Bourget Aeroport.

Sky Ferry :: Contact (http://www.sky-ferry.com/index.php/contact-us/)


In relation to (b) I'm happy to oblige again and educate the plank in relation to Protection from Harassment Act 1997. The 1997 Act is very clear.

1 Prohibition of harassment.

(1)A person must not pursue a course of conduct—
(a)which amounts to harassment of another, and
(b)which he knows or ought to know amounts to harassment of the other.
(2)For the purposes of this section, the person whose course of conduct is in question ought to know that it amounts to harassment of another if a reasonable person in possession of the same information would think the course of conduct amounted to harassment of the other.
(3)Subsection (1) does not apply to a course of conduct if the person who pursued it shows—
(a)that it was pursued for the purpose of preventing or detecting crime,
(b)that it was pursued under any enactment or rule of law or to comply with any condition or requirement imposed by any person under any enactment, or
(c)that in the particular circumstances the pursuit of the course of conduct was reasonable.


Plank, read this...

(3)Subsection (1) does not apply to a course of conduct if the person who pursued it shows—
(a)that it was pursued for the purpose of preventing or detecting crime,

Latest News, July 2015:
15/07/2015: Sky Ferry is proudly supporting the FARA Charity in Romania which helps build better life's for some of Romanias poorest Children and their familys. Make a Donation and help this Charity continue. Furthermore Robert plans to walk the below in October 2015 to raise extra funding, some 1,238Km from Paris over 28 days.





Sky Ferry is registered as a US Delaware trading company with an office located at Orlando MCO Intl, USA, and with an additional operational trading office and the flight planning headquarters located at Bucharest OTP Intl airport, Romania and finally with a satellite EU department in Paris, France.

Being strategically positioned at such locations around globe has several advantages, including the density of general aviation aircraft located in the areas, making it ideal for our clients to come and visit us if they so desire.

Are you suggesting he's a fat ginga?

[zimbo565]

Seems Mr Weaver has tired of Quimper and moved on as his website says:

Latest News, October 2015: Farewell France, hello Switzerland. Our new Office at Geneva Airport has now opened. We will be keeping the same French number for some months until setting up a new Swiss number within our office.

and

Sky Ferry is registered as a US Delaware trading company with an office located at Orlando MCO Intl, USA, and with an additional operational trading office and the flight planning headquarters located at Bucharest OTP Intl airport, Romania and finally with a operational department in Geneva, Switzerland.

Contact details, in case any one is desperate for his services :ugh: are:

Sky Ferry
Regus Offices

Regus are the guys who sell serviced office accommodation, will rent you an office by the hour and provide virtual offices.

Oh Lordy, was his office in Paris so small that he could take it with him in his backpack and drop it off in Geneva en route. Guess it kept the overheads down!:p

[Jetblu]

It's nothing more than just another Weaver scam.

I contacted Signature Aviation at the the Paris, France address. They confirmed that Weaver/Sky Ferry had no presence.

The French telephone number is just an internet based automated number that redirects to Weaver's mobile/cell phone.

Ditto for the American telephone number that entices the reader to believe that it's connected/linked to the Florida address. It's not!

I have also written to Russell Sherwood at Global Air Ferry.....enquiring if Weaver really is their best ferry pilot with 17 known victims scammed. I dread to think how their mediocre pilots rate. I'm still awaiting a reply.

https://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0CB0QFjAAahUKEwj7h-e9467IAhXCaRQKHZ8tAEE&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.air-ferry.com%2F&usg=AFQjCNGKIjjxLYBi2rdd1YYRWFnbOywNVw

In the meantime, the indictment has been drafted, amended by Counsel and about to be layed at court.

I can clarify that since the Seneca V crash I have had NO DEALINGS with Mr Rob Weaver, anyone with a modicum of sense would steer clear of this man.
I learnt the hard way, suffice to say " I was suckered by his convincing BS "

I was told of this thread by a Fellow Pilot & this is just a clarity post and not an opening for debates on the Seneca V crash, I really don't want to reopen old wounds.

[debiassi]

Ferryair, it’s probably a coincidence that you two appear to be inextricably linked.

It’s probably not helped by the fact that you don’t really help yourself.

Let me give you an example.

It’s a little convoluted but bear with me.

Yesterday I received an email/rant, supposedly aimed at our intrepid friend but for some strange reason, I was copied in bcc.

The email senders IP address had been masked and there was no signature.

Nor was there any attempt to identify the sender to me in the subsequent exchanges, despite the sender saying he wanted to be 100% transparent so that I could be sure he was in no way connected to Weaver.

All seemed very strange so I decided to enlist the help of a techie friend of mine who uncovered some very interesting information.

Appears the sender was a Colin Dace who was unknown to me but as you can see below.
The contents of the email seemed to suggest the sender was sick of been seemingly associated with Rupert?

I have heard similar laments in the past from yourself, also from "Truth Prevails" re N344SE, but have never heard of any connection with a Colin Dace.

I did see that there was a person by this name who regularly contributed on the BMAA forums which you also used to frequent until they banned you, allegedly?

From memory, Weaver also used to frequent that site but that’s probably also more coincidence.

My techie was also able to trace the origin of the email from the swat.pilot tag and this worked its way back to the link at the end of this post.

Firstly the email train.

Rob,
You need to use a Toilet, you are so full of **** that you might consider emptying your bowel to save yourself the agony of storing so much ****e within you.
To be blunt, I am sick of getting linked to you & your company.
Too many people are hunting you down, trust me you don't want me adding to the hunt.
If I ever cross paths with you again, you will wish someone else found you first, I can confirm that I will take retribution for all the hassle you have caused me.
You really are a stupid man, I had put you out of my mind, but you have to be the arse that you are, For the record I have a registered office that has been the same place for the last 12 years..... Can you say the same? I guess you can't..... in fact you can't say you have an office anywhere taking that your many pursuers have proven none of the purported offices exist.
Please desist from engaging in any dialogues with me, if you do persist I will take actions that will be extremely detrimental to you.
In laymen terms, **** off and annoy someone who is scared by your threats.
I have skills that would be used to really spoil your life and you should be grateful that I have shown you leniency up until now.
Oh by the way, I am living very comfortably in a property that you would need to rip off at least 100000 more people for your usual amount to even be able to get a sniff at my level of opulence.
Quit whilst you still have the opportunity to do so.

Anyone looking at the swat pilot forums, it wouldnt take long before they found references to people doing work for "Ferryair", bounced cheques, promises of remittances not coming to fruition, lame excuses etc etc, very similar to another infamous company.

Combine this with crashed and trashed aircraft, alleged insurance fraud, failure to submit an accident report for N344SE to the ruling authority, namely the FAA. pilots lack of qualifications by the assemble crew member/s???

Can you really blame people for making a con-nection between the two companies?

I also find it slightly strange that the same email address could point to two completely different individuals or do you have some association with a Mr Colin Dace or are they maybe one and the same??

I find after last night’s impromptu correspondence, my interest has been rekindled :)

For followers of this and associated threads, Radio 4 right now worth a listen. A few, seemingly familiar names, cropping up.

[coldair]

A link to the above radio programme ;

BBC Radio 4 - The Last Adventure in Aviation (http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b06hhmbv)

An insight into the world of ferry pilots in Britain who risk their lives in a lucrative but high stakes industry. Ferry pilots deliver small planes across oceans and continents; distances these aircrafts were not designed to fly.

Journalist and broadcaster Poonam Taneja, whose own ferry pilot father was killed in a plane crash while delivering a plane from Scotland to Canada in 1999, gets a rare insight into this largely hidden world.
She meets ferry pilots - Dave Henderson, Julian Storey and Robin Durie. She hears their tales of action and adventure and tries to discover what inspires them to fly in these extreme conditions. Poonam also tracks ferry pilot Joe Drury whose flying a small old plane from England to the United States. Will Joe get his plane from Scotland to Ford Lauderdale ?

After an exceptionally long painstaking process via Regus and the Swiss authorities, it is now confirmed that the plank HAS NOT opened an office in Geneva, Switzerland.

From his website...

[takethe5th]

Blimey, the ginger sky god is still going!! Just moving from place to place like a ferry pilot hobo, but still in business all the same.

More suprised someone hasn't put a contract on him rather than with him, since the main publicity on here about his business morals, what 2 or 3 years ago now?

Even more surprising is he is still in business when a 30 second google search about him or Skyferry should set all sorts of alarm bells ringing.

Anyway his antics keep things interesting

Global Air Ferry or Global Air is a prime example. Allegedly, the plank is one of the best ferry pilots there. One can only imagine what the others are like.

The early versions of their site, air-ferry.com, saved on the Wayback Machine say very little of substance about GAF although the copyright at the bottom of the About Us page (https://web.archive.org/web/20080312141203/http://www.air-ferry.com/aboutus.html) is in the name of Global Air Ferry (PRC) and on the Terms and Conditions page (https://web.archive.org/web/20080312213736/http://www.air-ferry.com/terms-and-conditions.html) they state Global Air Ferry is an offshore business company. Offices registered in the People's Rupublic of China. Company operations are based globally.In 2009, the About Us page (https://web.archive.org/web/20090624014007/http://www.air-ferry.com/aboutus.html) claimed that We started our full operation in 2006 as a new ferry company owned by 2 pilots. and also states In 2008, our company was featured in a Chicago Tribune article on ferry pilots and ferry companies. This public exposure plus a spotless aviation record has contributed to Global Air Ferry's already pristine reputation. The blurb on the Terms and Conditions page (https://web.archive.org/web/20090517005021/http://www.air-ferry.com/terms-and-conditions.html) has expanded to say Global Air Ferry is an offshore business company. Offices registered in the People's Rupublic of China. Address for business communications and legal inquiries: Global Air Ferry Ltd "Fa-May", Tianqu Air Business Bld "C", Beijing Int. Airport, 100621 Chaoyang Distr., China. Flight operations are commonly conducted from the US, most of the EU, Australia, Israel, South Africa, South America and most of the South-East Asia. Pilots are based globally. The Chicago Tribune article referred to can be found here. (https://web.archive.org/web/20090625012623/http://archives.chicagotribune.com/2008/aug/14/business/chi-mxa0817ferrypilotsaug17) By 2011 their site has had a redesign and the About Us page (https://web.archive.org/web/20110904033959/http://www.air-ferry.com/about_us.html) claims that Our company was established by 2 fresh flight instructors from UK and Ireland with JAA and FAA commercial licenses. under a picture of Russ Sherwood in his Air Force uniform. Alongside is the picture of four guys standing in front of an aircraft. This page also states that We were first registered in the UK under "Global Air Ferry Ltd". As Jetblu has already stated, this is incorrect as no such company has ever been registered with Companies House in the UK. The similar sounding Global Air Ferries Ltd was incorporated on 23 May 2001 but on 11 November 2003 the first notice was posted in the Gazette for the compulsory striking off of the company with it subsequently being struck off 3 months later and is therefore too early to be the claimed GAF originator. Maybe they confused the UK with China - easy mistake to make - I'm sure it's done all the time.:ugh:

The About Us page goes on to explain How did we end up in Russian Federation ?

Decision to de-register our company in the UK and re-register our company in Russia came as an opportunity, when a bigger aviation sales company "Sovrasko/Firstavia Group LLC" from St.Petersburg approached us with a long-term US-Russia aurcraft delivery contract for their sales operation. After meeting these lovely fellas in Moscow, we decided that we could really work together and merged in 2008. A further redesgn of the site would appear to have happened sometime in 2015 with the current About Us page (http://web.archive.org/web/20151022204950/http://www.air-ferry.com/history.html) stating Global Air Ferry LTD was originally formed in the United Kingdom as a ferry pilot provision and referal service. The company was formed by four newly qualified commercial pilots and flight instructors, all licensed in the USA, who wanted to establish a new standard in quality airplane transfer service from the United States to EU. After several years of successfull operation, pilot group grew larger and so did their experience. By 2010 GAF offered ferry service for any aircraft from any point to any point in the World. In 2012 GAF was registered in Florida, USA, as a part of Raich Aerospace Group LLC. Interesting how the 2 founders claimed in 2011 ("2 fresh flight instructors from UK and Ireland") has increased (inflation?) to 4 ("four newly qualified commercial pilots and flight instructors, all licensed in the USA") – maybe as they already had a spiffy picture of four guys standing in front of a plane it was easier to rewrite history rather than find a picture with only two people in it?

Also, no mention of the re-registration in Russia before the claimed registration in Florida in 2012. This, in any case, seems to have been superseded by a move to Virginia as at the bottom left of the page it states "Global Air Ferry" is a DBA name of Global Air LLC, a registered in the State of Virginia Limited Liability Company. Registered VA LLC#: S5692969. A search of The Commonwealth of Virginia’s site (https://sccefile.scc.virginia.gov/Business/S569296) confirms the registration number of S5692969 and gives an incorporation date of 14 July 2015 with the contact details as given by Jetblu above. So at least one statement on the site is correct. :D

Reading through this all again, I guess I have way too much spare time on my hands!

[Kengineer-130]

I can't belive this is still ongoing!!!

I was doing my PPL at Ormond beach acadamy in oct-dec 2005 when I met weaver, always thought there was something a bit odd about him!

I suspect he uses the Ormond beach address as the airport is fairly well known to him.

Surely the CAA or FAA can revoke his licence with the amount of trouble he is causing?:eek:

Unbelievable

Oh, don´t give MKA such a hard time. He is working on the story and it is on the ferry pilot site and his own.

Not everyone has time to sit and write all the time. OK….he could have waited until he was completely finished, but reading it on the other website, I thought (and told him) a well-done "cliffhanger," waiting for the next installment.

Here is a guy who knew going in, having read PPrune and STILL saw a wee bit of benefit and is making a report. Daring, fool-hardy……???? Waiting for the next installment.

[MKA742]

Because you didn't put the whole story, obviously intending people to come back again and again.

No not really. I didn't feel like writing the whole story. Was a spur of the moment thing.

[debiassi]

MKA747, dont insult our intelligence please??

You have had many months to consider your actions.

You and your Dad also had the opportunity to assist the authorities in trying to locate your paymaster but you chose not to follow that option.

Yet now, you expect the ferry fraternity to look upon you as some kind of arbitrator who gave Weaver a chance? or is that arbi-traitor.

Lets first consider that Weaver was the only person who would give you the oppportunity to carry out an oceanic ferry flight with ZERO oceanic experience.

Now many who know about RW, would not be in the least surprised that he allows a young pilot to fly without the consideration of legality, but surely a young pilot, wishing to make an honest and professional career in aviation, should be more dilligent towards adding any negativity or adverse information to his flying resume.?

Now RW claims that you undertook that flight, without being insured??
Admittedly, this is in retaliation to your blog post, but does that claim appear to hold water??

With zero oceanic experience, would you have thought to tick all the other boxes that would have also contributed towards you making your first ferry a legal flight, or were you also prepared to break the law, and do whatever it took to get a foot on the ladder?

Bear in mind, you already admit to knowing all about Weaver, and had previously frequented this very site when things started to go wrong.

Accoding to you, the owner of that aircraft had to pay additional money directly to you to facillitate the delivery of his aircraft after previously paying RW the amount in full so from the customers point of view, this ferry bore a lot of resemblace to many others that have failed at the hands of RW.

At that point, did you feel it necessary to publish your findings?

NO, you thought it suited your own interests to see if there were any more scraps hanging around, and as it turned out, there were right??? in the form of an A36 to the Phillipines.
Did you manage to get RW to insure you for this one or was that a secondary thought?

BTW you mention you had kept a private insurance policy a secret from RW and you actually had your own personal policy???
Well if you had the funds to pay for such a policy, you wouldnt be pimping yourself out to the biggest conman in the industry!!!!

It would appear to me that you werent actually intent on doing the ferry fraternity a favour, but actually more intent an getting exactly what you could out of RW to further your own interests and now you have moved on to other things, you again think your own interests may be better served by going public.

If you think that paints you in a positive light, then to some it may, but certainly does not in my book.:=

[Tourist]

No not really. I didn't feel like writing the whole story. Was a spur of the moment thing.

So why then stick a link on here advertising "your personal experience"?

Write it, or don't write it, but don't try to make this like the winner announcement on some awful reality television show.


And the winner is......

[MKA742]

You are right. I'm not claiming to be any of the things you said (I don't think that hihgly of myself). And yes I did it to get the experience.
I can assure you that with each of the flights it was too late for me to prevent the loss of money for the client. I suspect 'he' made sure of that. I will spare the details for my blog.

And yes maybe I should have spoken out sooner. But all the information was already out there so you can hardly blame me for the clients not picking that up in time (I warned them but then it was too late already).
It seems he is still getting jobs in. Are those my fault too?

As per legality, I will also get into that on my blog. Maybe I did take some chances and operated in a grey zone but I don't think I did anything explicitly illegal. Otherwise I would keep my mouth shut (like some others? where are the other detailed reports?). But again I won't go in detail here.

Please hold your judgement until I finish writing. I'm not doing this for personal gain. In fact, this will probably cost me more than do good for me. And again, I'm not being altruistic. This discussion is not news.

I'll try to get to writing today but I just got home from being away for a month.

Anybody knowing the whereabouts of the above mentioned individual and/or having details of any known tangible assets belonging to him, please contact me here or by PM.


Aside from his ongoing and known criminal activity of obtaining monies from customers by deception [highlighted in graphic detail again last week] it is quite feasible and very probable that he is operating around your aircraft and flying over your family homes uninsured.

It is known that Weaver is promoting a bogus CV to hoodwink clients in genuinely believing that he is an experienced ATP with a valid medical to suit.
Knowing that he has neither. it is suspected he is also passing off this bogus information to insurers.

He details his qualifications here. [Allegedly, the best pilot that they have] :{

As many will already know, the authorities would like a chat with Weaver, however a syndicate of disgruntled customers has know formed to fast-track the process.

It is also now known that Weaver has set up various blogs attacking anyone and everyone who highlights his criminal activities.
Having viewed the content I would seriously consider his mental health as a medical practitioner. Not only is the content entirely
false, he also appears to communicate with himself under various identities, although that is a matter for the FAA AME to consider.


Many thanks :ok:

[Jetblu]

I understand debiassi's points as a genuine and bona fide competitor, although personally, from a private perspective, I feel for MKA742 having tried very hard to dot the i's and cross the t's with the plank.

Forwarding just $5,000 and keeping $10,000 for himself was inevitable and par for the course of his modus operandi.

Anyway, in the interim http://www.pprune.org/biz-jets-ag-flying-ga-etc/573789-reward-robert-charles-weaver-sky-ferry-wanted.html

Thanks.

But don't feel bad for me. Feel bad for the client. I was not harmed in the making of this story... However, I learned a lot and offering help to anyone wanting to undertake something. Maybe I have usefull info.

[Tourist]

Maybe I have usefull info.

Well?

Do you have useful info?

Or do we have to go to your blog again?:rolleyes:

[GIVSP]

Any airman can request that personal information be hidden, such as the address or certificate number. To remain valid though, an airman only has 30 days to notify FAA of a change in address. I would think that a properly filed Freedom of Information request would result in FAA having to divulge the current residential on file.

This airman does not require a valid US Medical certificate as long as he is not exercising any of the privileges of his US FAA certificate.

Unless this airman took and passed an ATP practical very recently (there is a lag time to updating the FAA Airman Certificate database and the database is currently one month behind actual issuances), it is possible, but unlikely, that he holds a US FAA ATP. There are also no SIC or PIC type ratings on file, which would be required for any turbojet operations, single or multi-pilot. At the moment, the only fact that is certain is that prior to Dec 10, 2015, he did not hold an FAA ATP.

[PrivtPilotRadarTech]

MKA742, your blog is a good start, I'll read it. But what I really want is a movie, working title: "The Robert Weaver Story. Based on True Events." (first order of business, come up with a killer title. "Weaver Fever" "Scary Ferry" etc) One thing I must insist on is a version of that classic scene from "North by Northwest". Also a "happy ending". We could fund the film by auctioning off the right to choose the ending, surely one of Weaver's many fans has something delicious in mind. Or have a contest to pick the most imaginative denouement. Bonus- filming in Romania is inexpensive. Maybe an LA-39 chase scene?

[Unusual Attitude]

Spotted him on LinkedIn the other day....hiding in Romania now apparently.

[Jetblu]

Plank, Fat Ginger [or Captain Weaver as you like to be known]

It is widely known that you create various Wordpress blogs in retaliation to anyone who attempts to highlight your unsavoury, deceitful and unscrupulous business model. Many people, myself included, have stuck our necks out in an attempt to try and stop any unsuspecting individuals losing any money to you. Fortunately, whilst Robert Weaver and Skyferry Aircraft Delivery is now widely known in aviation circles, unfortunately, it is also known that you operate under the guise of other banners such as Global Air Ferry, Raich Aerospace Group LLC and I'm sure many others to lure your victims.

Whilst I was aware that "Goldeneaglepilot" aka Kevin Crellin had made his contributions to your other Wordpress blog on 11.4.15 and 14.4.15 before his sentencing at Oxford Crown Court on 15.4.15, I did use the reply function to that blog, but obviously, my post did not appear as you edited it out.

It has now come to my attention that you have created yet another Wordpress blog, this time to character assassinate Martijn Denecker, as he has more recently highlighted your ongoing modus operandi. FURTHER to that, in your infinite wisdom, you have also decided to write a load of drivel about me. Again, I have used your reply function to set the record straight, but again, as the owner of that blog you have rejected my response again. Whilst you and your counterpart may consider to have won by having the last word in an attempt to lure unsuspecting victims to your websites, I will be using this platform to set the facts of the matters straight to the readers.

My flying record had been unblemished and incident free for more than 30 years since I started to fly. Unlike you, I have never run out of fuel or 'crashed' any aircraft. In 2009, having refuelled my aircraft to full tanks at Lydd Airport, I had an engine failure over the English Channel minutes later.
My Turbo Lance was my pride and joy. I replaced the Lance with another PA32R. Unfortunately, very unfortunately, it was at that point where I had the total misfortune of coming into contact with you and your bogus company, which was then allegedly operating from some room at Coventry Airport. You told me that you had more than 10 Atlantic crossings and many thousands of flying hours. You appeared very convincing. You also told me that a ferry tank was needed to ferry my new aircraft from USA. You went on and said that I should pay you in full but you would credit me back for the ferry tank upon return to the UK. As you know, I purchased my aircraft from Piper Main Agents in the USA. They told me that you were a cowboy and had asked them to just strap the ferry tank on the back seats. They refused to do this. You departed un tanked having told me everything was in order. I have the emails. Alarm bells started to ring with what the dealer had told me about you. You then eventually departed Muncie and made short hops and ended up in Ottawa. Here you cited that you were a best man at a wedding in the UK and had to return. You also cited weather as a delay albeit many aircraft in the same category were still flying. Endless emails were sent to you. When it became apparent that the transaction was a fraud, I contacted Essex Police. You went on and told me that I was your only disgruntled customer.

In 2011 I was directed to a thread here on PPRuNe about you. The title was "Ferrybadexperiance" and ran over 100 pages. It transpired that I was not your only disgruntled customer, you had many, more than I can even remember and it was all based upon the same type of scam. Your competitors came to rescue many of your victims, myself included, and assisted us getting our aircraft. You then started to character assassinate them too. Why, I simply do not know, as they had unblemished histories and went on to demonstrate they could do what they said.

During the above era, "Goldeneaglepilot" claimed to be a retired solicitor and would help various victims reclaim monies from you. In December 2011 a meeting was set up with you in Birmingham to do just that, by way of giving you a Statutory Demand, which was accomplished. Leading on from that, I stated that my point was one of principle and I did not want the money back, instead you were told to pass this on to the FSD Charity. To my face, you apologised for your deceit and went on to make a public statement. Ring any bells?

A Fresh Start - A open apology - PPRuNe Forums - Professional

In January 2012 I was involved in an aircraft accident around a colleagues aircraft. I was placed in an induced coma for 4 months and remained in hospital for a further 4 months. As always, while the cat was away various mice played, including "Goldeneaglepilot" He managed to further convince various unsuspecting people that he was a retired solicitor and a member of my lodge. Of course, he was neither. That said, despite his convincing counsel, many just did what he said although they must have known it was wrong.

GEP then wrote to the insurance company stating that I had destroyed both my PA32 in 2009 and my colleagues aircraft more recently in 2012. He went on to convince my wife that she would also be implicated. Obviously, the police and authorities then became involved and had to investigate GEP's claims. GEP then also went on and wrote to ADO Iain M Macleod at the Essex County Fire and Rescue proclaiming to be an a private investigator. GEP even managed to convince them there. After diligent investigations by all authorities, it soon became obvious how everyone had become duped, but by that time, my wife had already been convinced that she would be implicated. As the final straw, GEP then produced a manufactured document to suggest that I had also been having an affair, which gave rise to divorce proceedings and was indeed cited. Again, all totally fictitious allegations.

Upon my discharge from hospital, I came out to an empty house. The house had been ransacked, totally bare. I discovered that the Court of Protection had been asked to be involved and documents had also been deceitfully completed omitting near to £500k of my assets. Without any authorisation from the Court, my dutiful wife, with the assistance of others. then decided to go about liquefying anything and everything of value. My car, motorbike and all jewellery vanished. My Granddads cuff-links and watch which my late Father also contributed towards had all gone. Obviously, I wanted to immediately resume contact with my three young girls. My wife told me that I could not see them as I would now look scary. All contact had to be indirect via telephone. Telephone contact had been uneventful and good until one day when my eldest daughter started to act strange. I asked her what was wrong. She was very quite, then said that her and her sister was made to go to their bedroom when a strange man was downstairs crying with Mummy's new boyfriend. I then commenced investigations. I discovered that the new boyfriend was a Mr Neil John Thomas Drew, a purported Hypnotherapist. Whilst I was very happy for the divorce to progress, I did not want my children subjected to such experiences and highlighted this to my wife and Mr Drew. Mr Drew, like Mr Weaver came across very bolshy and enquired what I was going to do about it. One would have immediately thought with an insight into my history that that would have been glaringly obvious.

I appointed investigators to commence background checks. I later discovered that Mr Drew had been a carpenter when he met his first wealthy wife. He convinced her that she should help him with finance for a joinery business for him to run. After a relatively short period the business inevitably folded. She was absolutely mortified, she has no joinery knowledge whatsoever and purely relied upon what she was told by him. His wife, come from an equestrian background and her primary role in Mr Drew's scheme was to just write the cheques out. About 2005 she was not prepared to finance the failed business any further having already lost six digits. Mr Drew then proclaimed to have a hidden talent and would change his career path to hypnotherapy in 2005. He then trotted off to the Essex Institute of clinical hypnosis. His former wife reported that his behaviour become even more bizarre. She drew the line when he reported that he needed to activate his DNA as he possessed abnormal powers and was a "ground warrior." [whatever one of those are] Their relationship then terminated and whilst it was acknowledged that Mr Drew did not even contribute £1 during the relationship, his former wife had to write a out further six digit cheque due to the life in which she had accustomed Mr Drew. It was also evidenced that Mr Drew had also broken his wife's nose in a dispute and had nothing to do at all with their son. Very loud alarm bells started to ring!

During my own divorce I also discovered Mr Drew's unethical practices by way of attempting to sell one of my other houses, which I immediately stopped dead in its track. Simultaneously to that, my eldest daughter then reported that she was going to be a bridesmaid at her Mothers wedding. Shortly after, in March 2013 I received my wife's divorce Form E stating that she had no envisaged change of circumstances within the proceeding 12 months and requested a speedy settlement. I'm guessing that my wife genuinely believed that her hypnosis sessions with Mr Drew would overturn my intellect, but as they discovered, their attempt was to no avail.
Late in June 2013, they had no option but to disclose their intended wedding date of 7th July 2013 as they planned to depart to the USA on 10th July 2013.
Investigations commenced again. It was soon discovered that Mr Neil Drew had in fact paid the West Retford Hotel a significant deposit in January 2013 for the planned wedding, therefore the Form E dated March 2013 was now subject to the Fraud Act 2006 and perjury.

Upon my ex wife then returning from the USA and married to Mr Drew, they move to a home in Bawtry, Doncaster and refuse telephone contact between the children and myself on the grounds that the girls were upset that I had attempted to block their USA holiday. Unbeknown to the girls, they did not know the information I had to hand about Mr Drew looking to be an alcoholic and a wife beater. I did not want my children thousands of miles away with such a character, no decent Father would. My ex wife had already demonstrated that she could quite easily be duped by GEP's saga so heaven knows what hypnotherapy could do. Now whilst Mr Drew's and his teenage son's refusal to see one another may be platonic, my relationship with my three girls was always loving and healthy up until Mr Drew's arrival. To call himself a child and adult therapist is absolutely disgraceful. The world of hypnotherapy is totally unregulated and his purported qualifications are no more that a small subscription which allow the letters to be used.

Whilst my fight to see my children is still ongoing through the Doncaster Family Court, I have asked that Mr Drew sees a psychiatrist, as I genuinely do not know how he/they ever thought that they would get away with any of this. In the interim, Mr Drew has asked our Captain Weaver to write him a letter in support that I should not see my children, on the grounds that I allegedly wrote to Weaver's employers in Thailand [which just happens to coincide between with the date of my coma] Weaver working in Thailand is news to me. Whilst Weaver claims to have offices in the USA, Switzerland and Romania, Mr Drew does similar and says that he has surgeries in Bawtry, Hertfordshire and Essex. I have found no evidence of either. I have evidence of a parked caravan in Bawtry, which again, has remarkable similarities to the story we have heard here about Weavers caravan in Quimper, France, but that is another story.

My ex and Mr Drew have now reported to be separated/divorced. Much investigation, so far points towards this being yet another scam, and for the benefit of the Family Court, but we will see. She may have suddenly seen the light, who knows.

Finally, whilst it gives me no pleasure whatsoever writing about my personal and private business here, if Mr Weaver genuinely believes writing untruthful blogs about me on the internet with Mr Drew's conspired assistance with deceitful letters that he has passed on to the Family Court will humiliate me enough to desist, they are both quite wrong. If I can save just one unsuspecting woman, child or athlete falling victim to Mr Neil Drew's bogus purported claims on his website OR even save another victim falling pray to Captain Weaver for the sake of writing about my good nature and character and responding to his slurs, then so be it. So here you go Captain Weaver, in an attempt for it to all join up, should any interested party/s surf the net. David Frederick Green, 65 Alderwood Drive, Abridge, Essex.

Now answers to your questions.

1. My masonic association is none of your business.
2. I am not banned from the USA.
3. My outstanding mortgage of £60k is none of your business.
4. I did not/have not deliberately destroyed any aircraft.
Neither have I ever run out of fuel. :p
5. My claim to fame in the 80's has absolutely nothing to do with you deceiving monies from me OR Mr Drew attempting to shut me up. What you proclaim to be facts are totally wrong but it does nevertheless highlight and confirm that I will knock peoples blocks off when antagonised enough.
6. Unlike you and Mr Drew, I do not have any website offering services with deceitful statements.
7. My ongoing law degree study is none of yours or Mr Drew's business.
8. I do not hide behind a keyboard. If I am not mistaken, it is both you and Mr Drew who do not validate actual addresses other than virtual addresses.
Everyone who needs to know, knows where and how to contact me.
9. There is no such person called Tom Granger at North Weald. That post you made was just another of your demonstrated fantasises in a bid to make your quest look authentic. Your Facebook statements are just the same. What sane individual would want to sign any contract with you, knowing your history, or are you now inviting us to believe that all your failed deliveries and customers that have posted here are just one person posting with various identities who has it in for you.
10. I have never ever been sacked from any employment. Neither have I ever claimed expenses not rightfully owed.

Seriously. :ugh:

As an aside, has anyone seen him flying?

[Kengineer-130]

How on earth is this character still operating? It's been years, surely the CAA, FAA must have some interest in him?

[joe grind]

to bad the U.K. laws won't let you carry.........

[Duchess_Driver]

Did I dream seeing on LinkedIn that they are applying for an AOC? :eek:

Friend of a friend is connected.... (Not me, honest!)

[Tinstaafl]

It appears he doesn't have a current medical (unless the system hasn't caught up yet). If not, how can he still be flying? Has he converted his US licence into another country's?

[Jetblu]

The plank hasn't had a valid medical for some time, but that doesn't relinquish his ability to still extort monies from aircraft owners by deception. Yes, he is still at it with another recent aircraft dumped in Vagar.

It would seemingly appear that he is now marketing himself as a left hand safety pilot for insurance purposes:confused:
He also makes various claims on his FB to instil confidence which is all part of the deceit. If he believes it, you are to believe it too.

[Tinstaafl]

So much for due diligence. *Everywhere* I've worked - including ferrying - has required copies of my licence & medical. Why would anyone let someone fly their plane without at least checking licence/medical?

[Jetblu]

You are right, and what you say makes perfect sense, but this is how it goes....

Prospective purchaser/owner having probably just gone through an exhausting period sourcing the desired aircraft, then survey, pre-buy etc etc is then tasked with getting the aircraft home. The first thing is obtaining ferry quotes, working on the assumption that all companies/pilots are legally able to perform the duty/service that they are advertising. This process can be just as exhausting as the purchase itself. The Email exchanges with various ferry companies presenting different alternatives/routes/equipment/costs etc etc is then taken on board for comparisons.

I think I can speak for everyone here [definitely myself] and this is when the *due diligence* process then registers to the next stage of checking this type of finer detail, however, the modus operandi of weaver is to conclude the final part of his sale by telephone. He will call and adjust the cost down significantly stating that he has a cancellation, and if you wire the money to his bank account immediately a deal is concluded. He is very very convincing.
Of course, all details are confirmed by email as the money is wired to his bank account. After that process the fun really begins.

That said, at the time of my ferry, the medical/license scenario would not have helped much as he was current, albeit with a fictitious address.

[Jetblu]

:)

It's quite amazing really. In the short space of time since my previous post, miraculously, the plank has since posted his reasoning for no FAA medical details on his Farcebook page.

It is state and federal law that on the FAA database you can have certain information removed. The most common being address however other information can be removed on request with additional documents. Keep your personal information secure and confidential.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


....despite the FAA confirming that no medical exists. :ugh:


My guess is that he will still lure unsuspecting victims in with details of other pilots details now.

[JammedStab]

Of note...in less than a year, no FAA medical will be required for a lot of GA flying.

[Jetblu]

You are correct JammedStab, nevertheless, one cannot operate on commercial operations, such that paid ferry flying is, or even be a 'safety pilot' to a commercial operation with no medical, can they.

[Hudson_Hawk]

Rob Weaver has been removed from the pilot list of Global Air: Active Pilots | Global Air Ferry | International Aircraft Transfer Service (http://www.air-ferry.com/pilots.html) following negative publicity. We will, however, continue investigating the issue and may reinstate his status with Global Air.

If anyone is unsure who is who, you are welcome to contact me privately, and i will schedule a video Skype call with each and every one of you to clarify that Global Air is NOT a company run by RW. Rob, just like over thousand other pilots on our database, work with us on various projects. (We are a ferry pilot referral service.) The only difference is - 99% of pilots, like myself, are airline pilots who have a few weeks per year available, out of their busy schedule, to take an aircraft from A to B.

Again, feel free to contact me personally for any information you may need to clarify the issue and to ensure that this inappropriate libel of Global Air stops here.

[deefer dog]

That web site (Global Air Ferry) has Robert Weaver's finger prints, bad grammar and spelling mistakes all over it!

Again, if you do not believe that this website iS NOT operated or owned by RW, You are welcome to contact me via PM and schedule a video Skype call.

So far, no one has contacted me privately. Instead of cowardly speculations behind anonymous avatars, I invite you to contact me and speak face to face. There is no other way to prove to you that this is not RW's website and he has no further connection to this operation.

[Hudson_Hawk]

I'm available today, between 0700 and 1900 US Eastern time. Please feel free to contact me to schedule a video Skype call. I am also available for video calls via FaceTime.

Let's clear this issue out once and for all, and stop dragging people's names and businesses through the mud. It is cowardly and unbecoming. I you are professional aviators then be professional - act like professionals and let's talk like professionals.

I you really want to resolve this matter, you will PM me and schedule a call to talk to me face to face. If you do not – it just proves that you are trolling this forum for the purpose of libel ONLY. (Thats a crime in the US.)

[Jonzarno]

I don't have a dog in this fight but, given that HH has made this offer, I think it only fair that those criticising his operation should either take him up on his offer and then make a considered judgement based on what happens on the call, or stop criticising him. His offer goes far beyond anything ever offered by RW and he deserves a fair hearing.

My £.02.

[Hudson_Hawk]

Jonzarno, thanks for the voice of reason!

But still, no PMs.

Come on guys, I am off today and tomorrow. But on 21st I'm starting a 4-day. The last thing you need in a FD is your CA chatting on Skype via onboard wifi!..

(Buy the way, like most ferry pilots in the world, I am not a full-time ferry pilot. In fact, I hardly do this myself any more. Used to, back in 2007, some in 2008, occasionally in 2009 and very rarely in 2010. At the moment, I'm a full-time CA with a 121 carrier in the US, flying regional jets. So, do me a favor, PM me, so we can resolve this stupid issue and leave it to rest once and for all!)

[Jetblu]

Hudson Hawk

Thanks for popping in, albeit 5 months late.

Your eleventh hour damage limitation is rather amusing, given that your reasoning for omitting Robert Weaver aka 'the plank' [ your acclaimed 'best pilot'] from the Global Ferry Website is because of bad publicity. Really!?!
Where have you been the last 5/6 years?

You call yourself professional. That is very interesting in itself. What is professional about having your base addressed on the Global Air Ferry website when the owners and law enforcement say that they have never heard about you?

Global Air Ferry also have a Facebook page. I'm convinced that this specific social network platform is used as a vehicle for fraud and deception. It is, isn't it?

On or about 25th November 2015 a post appeared on the Global Ferry Facebook suggesting that the plank had been involved with a successful ferry
of a Beechcraft Bonanza. THAT ferry was far from successful, wasn't it?
It ended in tears the owner $1000's out of pocket, didn't it?

Moving on, on or about 10th March 2016 'someone' at Global Air ferry went on to make another Global Air Ferry Facebook post that Capt Robert Weaver aka 'the plank' was involved with a Cessna Citation 1 delivery. The plank does not even have a type rating on this aircraft and did not even have a current medical certificate. A professional organisation checks these things, right?

On the 14th July, again, another Global Air Ferry Facebook post looms, suggesting Capt Robert Weaver was on another successful mission with Piper Aerostar N369QC. He didn't even have a current medical for this ferry, did he? Nevertheless, the aircraft was being used for AOC work in the UK before it went back to the USA.

5th August 2016 Global Ferry Facebook suggests he's involved with a DA42.

23rd August 2016 Global Air Ferry Facebook suggests he's involved with a Fairchild Husky and a BN Islander. Heaven help.

The style and Modus Operandi of this company has all the same hallmarks to the Skyferry website, doesn't it? Does Eva do the posts by any chance?

I have no intention or interest in PM'ing you or speaking with you. I suspect that you are Russ Sherwood. In fact, on the Global Air Ferry Facebook page Russ says......

Global Air Ferry - Facebook

https://www.facebook.com/globalairferry/?fref=ts

[Hudson_Hawk]

Well, once again, if you are a coward and want to avoid face to face conversation - you proved it here.

I don't know who you are, but i can give you a very simple explanation about the involvement of RW in this operation: he is the only fully-available ferry pilot who would take on any job. We have thousands of pilots on our database and they can only work 1% of the time, just like me. So, is it that surprising that he does a lot of ferry work for GAF and other companies?

Further, neither me, nor anyone else has received any negative emails from clients regarding RW's work. If you do have anyone we can talk to about these ferries - please PM me their contact information and, as a part of internal instigation, i will personally get in touch with them.

The registered address of the base of operation of GAF is not the issue in this conversation. I am here to prove that RW does not have any connection to GAF and does not own or operate it or its web site.

I am awaiting names and contact details of the aforementioned victims via my PM, so I can contact them right aways. Thanks for your cooperation.

[Hudson_Hawk]

I PM-ed you for the contacts of the victims. Please respond.

The Facebook page we run publishes only real project for which we receive inquiries. That's why they are labelled "In the works". That means, that the projects are in the stage of being quoted or being negotiated or being undertaken. We have customer inquiry form to back up each and every post of the FB page. They are all 100% real.

[Jetblu]

Hudson Hawk,

Coward I am not, far from, as RW will attest himself when I appeared larger than life.

I much prefer transparency. I don't like 'he said/she said/he said' Much better here. More professional and open for all to see. Speaking face to face would not prove much, would it?

You state that Global Air Ferry is professional. When was the last time you checked his licence/medical?

I suspect he is the only one taking on such work. Nobody else would touch it because it can't be done for his/your price. But, once the money is in the planks grubby mits the ferry doesn't happen anyway, does it?

The registered, and alleged base address was purely brought up to display the modus operandi of Global Air Ferry, nothing more.

[Hudson_Hawk]

AGAIN, this conversation is not about Global Air's operation. This is about RW's not being a part of it. Face to face conversation will prove it. How are you not getting this?.. Do I need to draw you a picture. Okay, here it is: we connect via Skype, we have live conversation, you compare the images you receive via Skype with the known images of RW and you make conclusion that I am not RW. Further, I am more then happy to show you my passport over the video feed. You can compare it with the public records for GAF registration and come to a conclusion that GAF is not run by RW.

I don't care at this point, what information you publish about RW, its not my business any more. What I want is details of people he wronged while doing work for GAF. If you have them - send them to me. Simple, no?

[Hudson_Hawk]

And my response to your claim that i "popped in 5 moths late": this is a business, and like any business we do not go "dumpster diving" to anonymous rumor network for pilot feedback. We have a published email address and we hope that people will use it. So far, no one has submitted any official complaints about the pilot in question.

[Jetblu]

Well that is bare faced lie in itself! so speaking face to face wouldn't resolve much, would it?

I emailed Global Air Ferry and received ZERO response.

I will scroll back through my emails when I have a minute and post it here.

Someone has seemingly removed the plank from the Global Air Ferry website, BUT, I say again, when was the last time that you checked his credentials?
Professionals do do this, right?

[Hudson_Hawk]

Do not accuse people of lying, unless you have facts to prove it. Resend you email to GAF now, we will see. Also, I am still awaiting your response regarding the victims.

And yes, speaking face to face would absolutely resolve your mistaken assumption that GAF is an alter ego of RW's operation. It is not. You made a mistake - own up to it like a man.

[Jonzarno]

JB

I have to say that I don't see how a face to face video call with HH can do any harm.

Maybe he's a liar as you accuse, and maybe he's an honest man trying to protect his business and is as much a victim of RW as you are: I don't know. But one thing is for sure: just exchanging artillery fire on the forum isn't going to get anyone nearer to a sensible solution.

He has offered to talk directly to you. I suggest you take him up on that offer, have the conversation and then decide what you think.

Another £.02 worth: this is starting to get expensive.... ;)

[Jetblu]

Jonzarno

That would be a total waste of my time. It would be like listening to our female avitrix on the other thread.

That would be a total waste of my time.

How do you know if you haven't tried it? It's not as though a Skype call costs a lot.

[Hudson_Hawk]

JetBlue – Mr Troll! (until you call me and discuss the issue like a normal man - this is going to be your name here)

I am not going to discuss any cases on the forum. I am going to, however, conduct a correspondence with you privately, via email, like all the professionals do. You can either PM me or email me. Names of clients and details of their projects will not be discussed on public forum. It is unprofessional and illegal.

I will await information from you.

This back-and-forth is over. You have my PM and I am willing to talk via video. Until then, we are done with this forum.

Jonzarno - you sound like a reasonable man, talking to you would actually be my pleasure. Feel free to PM me.

[Jetblu]

Hudson Hawk

You can call me whatever you wish. Many here already know me and know otherwise.

"It is unprofessional and illegal."

Indeed. And so is taking peoples money by deceit and making fraudulent and deceitful representations on social media in the public domain.

That particular Beechcraft ferry was another botched ferry, wasn't it?
The owner lost alot of money, didn't he?
Anyone looking at your Global Air Ferry Facebook page might genuinely believe your statements, wouldn't they?

If I thought that you were half decent, I would engage in conversation with you. Jonzarno actually knows me in person, and yes, he too is a nice genuine person, but, don't think for one minute that by coming here with your show acting in the way that you are by offering video conference will assist your good cause, because it won't.

[Hudson_Hawk]

The conversation with Mr Troll is over.

Jonzarno, I PM-ed you. If you have any information about any accidents and incidents, including dates, tail number and contact of owners - i will investigate. Please PM me or email corporate. Thanks.

[Jetblu]

Yes, and I think the video conference would have ended in much the same style when questions were presented but either ignored or declined.

Can I please suggest that you remove ALL misrepresentations from the Global Air Ferry website/Facebook to save further potential victims from losing $$$$$

Thanks.

[MKA742]

I really didn't want to come back to this subject here.

The cannon fire won't resolve much I'm afraid, but I can confirm that the Bonanza ferry (Slovenia - Philippines) was an utter mess. The owner was very unhappy. He was thankful to me though for actually making an effort to even get the plane there, but as you can guess that was extra...

Mr. Weavers' reasons for not flying it himself were quite ... entertaining. Did you even know he sub-sub-'contracted' it?

The owner really did not contact you??? I'll check with him and get back to you. Seems very unlikely :eek: I didn't know GAF was the intial point of contact...

That's enough out of me. All other communication will also be through PM.

I feel you Jetblu...

[Hudson_Hawk]

Thank you. Please make official complaint via corporate email and we will investigate the issue. I can assure you that no one has contacted us about this matter via email or telephone.

[Jetblu]

Hudson Hawk

Save the GAF video conference/investigation drama for the FAA and FBI.

Too little, too late, but nice try!

The scam/party is over, isn't it.

[Jonzarno]

Jetblu

You have nothing to lose by talking to him. The worst that can happen is that you finish the call in the position in which you are now.....

[Hudson_Hawk]

Jesus! It's like talking to someone with an ADD or a learning disability... Even advise from his colleagues to take the video call is spent unnoticed. First he is crying for attention, and then, when attention is given to him - he rejects it like a child.

Yeah, okay, Mr Troll, I'll save the drama for the FAA, the FBI, the CIA, and the Interpol.

Normal guys: I am done here. Pleasure talking to you all. If you have any information about the aforementioned cases - please email GAF corporate and we will be happy to look into it. Every complaint will be investigated in a professional and structured manner. Also, the offer to talk via Skype (if you still need proof that this is not RW and he is not a part of GAF) - stands.

Email me and i will be much obliged.

Otherwise, signing off and wishing all clear skies.

[Stanwell]

Like it..
"Every complaint will be investigated in a professional and structured manner."
In the same way that your obligation of Due Diligence was fulfilled?
Seems some people are a bit slow to wake up in the mornings.

Anyway, I do think you're going to need a good supply of industrial-strength deodoriser.
Happy landings.

[Jonzarno]

I have to say that this latest exchange has not helped in dealing with the Weaver problem.

Let's look at it logically and unemotionally for a moment:

1. Weaver either is or is not a con artist and a fraud
2. He certainly was, at one time, associated with GAF
3. GAF now say that he is no longer associated with them


Some conclusions from the above:

1. There is a huge volume of complaints about Mr Weaver that leads me, at least, to believe that he has more than a case to answer

2. GAF either is part of a complex effort to deceive everyone and really is part of the Weaver constellation, or they are as much a victim as anyone else and their reputation is being destroyed because they were unlucky enough to get involved with Mr Weaver.

3. It is obvious that HH is worried about the impact that his association with RW has had on his business.

4. If he is lying about this: throwing vociferous allegations and insults at him here isn't going to prove that. He has offered to talk directly to those affected by RW's activities and has said he can provide documentary proof of what he says. If people think he is lying: call him out, give him the rope he has asked for and see if he hangs himself or not.

5. On the other hand: if HH is telling the truth, and nobody has yet demonstrated that he isn't, then those criticising GAF are simply using him as a surrogate for RW.

6. If that is the case, and as I've said before, I don't know what the truth in this is; but I am quite sure that throwing insults back and forth on this forum gets us no nearer to solving the Weaver problem than simply grabbing the nearest old woman we can find and burning her as a witch will stop next year's harvest being a bad one.

Another £.02 probably wasted......... :sad:

[Jetblu]

Jonzarno

Everything I look at I look at logically and methodically. My views are unchanged. In fact, my views are more reinforced than ever. Whilst I appreciate your stance by sitting on the fence as an arbitrator, thereby giving Hudson Hawk the benefit of doubt, at post #93 I called him a bared faced liar,
I would have still called him the same to his face. I do not make any statement that a/ I can not back up. b/ that is untrue.

Hudson Hawk is very aware sh*t has hit the fan, big style! It was only a matter of when. He has only come here now in a last minute and failed attempt in trying to shift the criminal activities from his door. The party has come to an end and he doesn't like the mess from the aftermath at his door with fingers pointing.

I perhaps have more knowledge than you, so please accept what I have to say in the same way I would respect your personal knowledge.

HUDSON HAWK

Believe it or not, I have more important things to do than waste time listening to your sh*t on a video link. If you can't tell the truth here, I doubt you could anywhere. That said, as you know, you are 'part' of the Weaver fraud.

Good, honest, genuine aircraft owners have viewed your Global Air Ferry website and foolishly accepted what it has displayed. No unsuspecting person would know it represented a pack of lies!

Even your published base address was fictitious! How do I know?

to Global
Dear Mr Sherwood,

Thank you for your acknowledgment to this very serious matter.

My name is David Green. I am just one of seventeen other known victims to Mr Weaver. There could even be more than that.

I purchased a Piper Saratoga SP from a Muncie Aviation, Illinois, USA and contracted Weaver to ferry my aircraft back to the UK.

On top of the ferry cost, Weaver also charged me for a ferry tank. It transpired that Weaver had NEVER fitted the ferry tank.

Weaver flew the aircraft from Muncie and got as far as Ottawa, Canada. Excuses being weather and a planned wedding that he had to attend in the UK. Both excuses were later to be found lies, along with the discovery of the phantom ferry tank.

When I could see other C182's PA32's and BE36's doing the same route I knew things were not quite right, but at that stage it was too late, I knew that I had been duped by Weaver.

I then had to employ the services of a genuine ferry pilot, incurring further expense. It goes without saying that I never got a penny back from Weaver.
Criminals don't generally give back do they.

In the end I reported the matter to the police. Weaver agreed that he had spent my money but also agreed to repay it back in nominal weekly amounts to a flying charity, FSD whom I had nominated.

Weaver then made a public apology for all his antics, but again, we were duped as he just went on to scam even more people.

I hope this helps.

Kind regards,
David

Are you still wishing us all clear skies Mr Sherwood, OR victims empty pockets? :=

[Jonzarno]

Well at least we now have some specific allegations to which HH can respond

[Jetblu]

Was hoping for another £0.02p. They're adding up ;)

[Jonzarno]

Yeah, it's getting expensive!..... :p

[Jetblu]

Something else for 'Hudson Hawk' to consider.....

Back in 2011 Global Air Ferry/SkyFerry/Weaver was associated with this famous PA31 Navajo ferry to Thailand.

This was another frustrated ferry with large bills for unpaid fuel en-route.

Global Air Ferry proudly advertises the fact that Weaver was the crew/PIC
HE WAS NOT! He again subcontracted this out to a Julian Storey, who came to Weaver's defence on another thread and said that he did not think Weaver's deceit was intentional. Well, we've had another 5 years of proof/history there to make our minds up about that.

Again, any unsuspecting owner looking at your GAF website would undoubtedly be duped.


Recent Aircraft Ferry Projects | Global Air Ferry | International Aircraft Transfer Service (http://www.air-ferry.com/recent_projects.html)



Piper Navajo (US to Thailand)

Another recent project completed by on time and within the budget. Rob reports 250Knots en route with 80 knots tailwinds. These images outside Ken Borek at CYFB airport demonstrate another clever and economical aircraft defrosting technique: placing aircraft in a heated hangar for an hour before the flight in order to get the oil warm and icing melted off. This option is much cheaper then leaving aircraft in the overnight hangar, thus saving you money ot the total ferry expenses.

[debiassi]

Where is HH today, I thought he was days off.
RW was the only pilot available from more than 1000 on file :}

Dave, I thought HH fought a couple of good rounds there but looks like you have a strong chin and now you have him on the ropes.;)

Actually I was pretty amazed when he said The registered address of the base of operation of GAF is not the issue in this conversation

So advertising a false address is ok then, :ugh: What could be the logical reasoning behind that then if not an intent to avoid detection??

[Evanelpus]

The one question that HH has repeatedly chosen to ignore on here is the checking of Weavers documentation, now why would this be?

[Jetblu]

Evanelpus, if you recall, HH didn't want any questions posed here. He was quick on the uptake to visit the thread and immediately offer Skype, video conference, PM or Email. He wanted to come across as the good guy acknowledging the RW stench and bad publicity. [That's his story]

I'm not sure how many he managed to fool here with that chestnut, but it most certainly did not fool me.

He hasn't come back and I'm guessing he won't because he knows there is much much more.

[CL300]

And if someone has a copy of RW licences and medical it must be him no ?

[Jetblu]

I am not aware of anyone being in receipt of a 'doctored' copy of his FAA medical certificate. As far as Weaver is concerned, the status of his FAA medical is strictly private and confidential business. The mindset is that nobody challenges the teacher, doctor or captain, yes.

Weaver heavily relies upon young rookies wanting to build hours. This is where the illegal operation just touches towards being legal, but doesn't quite make it.
The 'rookie' will genuinely believe that RW is qualified to PIC status. Weaver will then sit in the RHS for alleged 'training' purposes and to satisfy insurance purposes with his alleged 3000 hours and 100 Atlantic crossings. That said, an insurance company has just said that the failure to report the material disclosure of having no current medical would render the insurance void, despite the rookie was fully current and with a current medical.

You must remember, many would post their bad experiences here but are unfortunately taking in by a/ false promise by RW to getting their money back b/ the wording on ALL Weaver's documentation, which in all honesty, is a more serious offence than the initial fraud itself.

Incident: Greenland DH8B near Narsarsuaq on Nov 14th 2016, finds and guides private plane to safety (http://avherald.com/h?article=4a0c9e6f&opt=0)

Relevant to the subject but not necessarily relevant to THE subject person, a great outcome on ferry flying.

[Flap Sup]

AFAIR, when RW crashed the Seneca in Greenland in 2007 (2006?), an Air Greenland Bell Heli guided him in towards the football (soccer) field in BGNS/JNS.

I suspect another ferry victim has lost a sizeable chunk of money recently.

Interesting, and well spotted. Should be easier to track his movements now, and keep an eye on the legalities of training he has expectations of doing in the aircraft.

I was scammed out of my total ferry payment that was made in Q3 2011. Sad to see that Rob Weaver continues to scam other plane owners without any real repercussions. It is my hope that one day I hear he's behind bars serving some time for all that he has done.

[Tinstaafl]

According to the FAA's airman database, there is no record of a current medical. How is he still flying?

I'm sure this has already been mentioned a while back - I can't be arsed to look for the post though.

[Tinstaafl]

It was. But I don't think hiding medical status is one of the privacy options, unlike hiding your address or not using Soc.Sec# in your FAA records.

[Evanelpus]

Has anyone know what Robert has been doing lately?

[EatMyShorts!]

Hiding :E:E:E

And he changed from FSX to P3D.

P3D4.2 is awesome!

[EatMyShorts!]

Absolutely agree. Even he found out about it.

Last seen 'owning' ski chalets in Switzerland! Is there money in scamming skiers I wonder.

[rudestuff]

Other than paying a fortune upfront?

Just on a point of observation - the aeroplane in the 1st link cannot be the one in the second link unless there was an extensive repaint. The one in the 1st link has all-blue spats, while the one in the second link has blue lower spats with yellow upper spats and a red cheat-band. Also on the one in the 2nd link the blue lower region and upper yellow region are separated by a straight red cheat line, whereas on the one in the 1st link the blue/yellow boundary (and the red line) joggle upwards on the side of the cowl.

PS - OK, so Mr google has now shown me photos of a Robin in both colour schemes bearing the same registration - there is also significant paint changes on the fin ad rudder. So why the new paint-job? It's not like the change is sufficient to disguise the identity!

[Prophead]

There was a photo of him on the fb link I posted showing him doing FAA BFR's but after I posted it the photo has been deleted.

[SFCC]

Here we go again.....
I've been waiting for an update on this little twerp.:rolleyes:

[EatMyShorts!]

His Romanian charter rates (130 EUR/hour) are quite high for this "cheap" aircraft. In Germany, at my club, you'll get a proper P28A or a modern C172 for just 10 EUR more.

[pulse1]

If he tries cheating the Turks he is more likely to suffer rough justice:

[QCmagnifier]

Even to this day, RW is "Robbing" people. Clearly he will never change and continue to leave people hanging and hide behind his Romania based business with Swiss Banks and Irish partners. SkyFerry is aligned safely crafty trick to stop legal actions.

Silvia, his poor wife really must be crazy as well to support his actions.

N36CB owners in Korea ended up with their aircraft stuck in Uganda when he just left and refused to refund money. The airport staff did not even get paid and money collected for handling was pushed onto the owner later. Thievery. That is one of many I know about.

[EatMyShorts!]

In light of his continued fraud, I'm really amazed that no disgruntled client has sent some biker-gang after him.

Sky Ferry Aircraft Delivery is a SCAM and FRAUD operation represented by Robert Charles Weaver.
I've contracted Sky Ferry Aircraft Delivery LLC to ferry a newly purchased Piper PA38 from Monterey, CA KMRY to Denmark EKRK.
The contract was signed on September 29th 2020 with contract value of $13,000 USD and ferry flight to commence on October 7 2020.
On October 1st 2020 I've deposited $6500 via Wire Transfer from Bank of America to CIM Banque on the account provided in the contract in the name of Robert Weaver as opposed to Sky Ferry Aircraft Delivery LLC.
After the wire was sent Mr.Weaver became evasive and failed to show up on the scheduled pick up date to commence the ferry flight. The pick up date was postponed twice by Mr. Weaver, however he never showed up and didn't provide the expected pick up date.
Mr. Weaver failed to respond to multiple requests including providing documents required to obtain an insurance policy for the specific (route) ferry flight: photo ID, pilot certificate, medical and proof of insurance policy as required by the FAA and the contract.
I've requested the deposit back from Mr. Weaver due to breach of a contract, however Mr. Weaver refused to return the deposit of $6500.
I have consulted an aviation attorney and major violations where found, including the Contract Law as well as the Federal Aviation Regulations which are described in the attachments to this review.
Considering that the ferry flight of a PA38 (30 US.Gal usable fuel) across the Atlantic without aux ferry tanks installed which was suggested by Mr. Weaver is not only violates the FAR's, but seems that the flight was never meant to happen and the Sky Ferry Aircraft Delivery duly represented by MR. Weaver is in business to obtain the contract funds in advance and then keep the money in hopes of people not taking any legal action against him.

[Romeo Tango]

My commiserations. As you must now be aware you are not the first :uhoh:

[mutt]

It always amazes me that people come to PPRuNe to complain about this guy, but they never come here to check a persons reputation before sending money.

[EatMyShorts!]

Attack his website and Facebook to deter potential customers.

[Miles Magister]

Max,

Please do not try and ferry a PA38 across the pond. Over the years I an my colleagues have flown countless Search and Rescue sorties looking for similar aircraft and often never found anything. Take the wings off and freight it over then put the wings back on.

Hi Max,

What led you to select Sky Ferry over other ferry flight companies?

[HyFlyer]

A total failure of 'Google fu' skills, and no aviation friends to warn him away.

[EatMyShorts!]

Hi Max,

What led you to select Sky Ferry over other ferry flight companies?
The pricing? I guess...

[arun_flyboy93]

I was trying to get hold of Robert Weaver for the last few weeks. No responses on his email call Mike, his website, is linked in profile, or any other media. Anyone has any idea where he is or what happened?

[megan]

In jail hopefully.

[arun_flyboy93]

Can anyone tell me where he is? Is he dead, or something?..

[Dagens]

All good. He's busy working away as usual.

[arun_flyboy93]

If you are considering using Robert Weaver's services, beware. His MO is very simple. During the quoting process he appears very efficient and this continues until the money is paid. The agreed timeline for the ferry then rapidly slips and he has a multitude of excuses lined up. Once you are in real trouble, as the aircraft has not left its destination, he forces you to find a replacement ferry company. he then retains at least half of the upfront fee, as you have "cancelled" the contract. Fraudulent, but very effective.
There are numerous law enforcement agencies after him, and it is only a matter of time before he gets his just deserves !!
In the meantime use a reputable company.

Hi! I belve Robert Weaver has been missing for the last few months. I am trying to get hold of him regarding some outstanding obligations. His contact info (phone numbers) is all disconnected and his email does not respond to any addresses or inquiries (tried many times from different emails). Can someone me to any of his colleagues or business associates? I am trying to contact him 3 months already. Did he crash or something? Any help would be appreciated.

[EatMyShorts!]

I guess it is his usual scam method....

The last I heard recently was that he had gone to Australia bush flying. Hope this helps.

[holly green]

i’m a family member of the pilot and been without contact for many years and just looking for more information

[rigpiggy]

Are youn really telling me that you internet savvy bunch haven't set up a Facebook tag search to find this monkey

[rigpiggy]

Well in one of the other threads, it seems RW/skyferry is back to it's usual tricks. Someone said he maybe flying in the Aussie outback (doubtful, probably a false lead by himself). Anyways anyone with his whereabouts should contact the folks in the other thread. Who knows may even get a finders fee.

[Climb150]

I just looked at his LinkedIn.

He is a bit of a Frank Abinale. Doctor, Lawyer, Pilot and Lutheran!
