Harrods (LTN) in troubles?

Do you have any indications about the current status of Harrods at LTN? It seems that OceanSky contracted the former Harrods executive as well as a facility.
Pls advise.

No truth in the "rumor"

No truth in that rumor, Harrods are as busy as ever, Ocean sky have taken over the ' old ' ex Harrods and of late Silverjet fbo site.
We here at Harrods are as busy as ever, offering a five star service for all our customers. Regards to all, our hangar doors are always open to all in the aviation business.

Badly informed speculation

Compare

Ocean Sky - ex employees using old facilities, in a company that is allegedly on stop with fuel companies and other FBO's and doesn't pay its bills on time.

Harrods working in new FBO facility opened January last year, with 2 hangars and 2 ramp/parking areas, good staff, stable company and already providing high quality service.

Harrods Aviation not in trouble.

Harrods (LTN) in troubles (sic)?

Chrispler....YOU STARTED THE THREAD! You did allude to Harrods being in trouble in YOUR thread starter!!!!
You have been answered on here, on the Ocean Sky thread and still you persist. Have you just been fired by Harrods per chance?
I believe this post had been CLOSED by the Mods (Duck in paticular!) on the 10th......how and why has this tripe been re-opened?

Not so much re-opened as revived in a new thread by the OP for reasons known only to him/her.

I think this thread is one that the forum members can self moderate by way of their replies.
