Ocean Sky Aviation Ltd

[Captain Earle]

Just did a credit check on Ocean Sky Aviation Ltd to find out that they are in receivership, does anyone know if this is their broker arm or their operator arm or both?

[Monkey Boy]

Interesting - this is news to me! Everything's fine in both departments. Why do you ask?

[asdf1234]

There are many different companies under the Ocean Sky banner. Didn't they start registering aircraft under Ocean Sky (UK) Limited a while back?

[Captain Earle]

Well I can only tell you what is registered at Companies House!

[Monkey Boy]

As I said earlier - everything's fine. But thank you for asking. Why the interest in Ocean Sky?

[Captain Earle]

So its not true then?

[Monkey Boy]

Which part of "everything's fine" are you having trouble with?

Perhaps you'd like to tell us why your looking up Ocean Sky at Companies House and maybe I could be of further assistance.

A company in receivership - an aircraft impounded in Manchester a little while back. How is everything fine? Do tell.

[Monkey Boy]

Trust me - everything's fine. I'm certain Captain Earle has an agenda.

[Privet]

Perhaps looking at the accounts for comedy value

[Captain Earle]

Sorry didn't mean to offend, well obviously someone has got it wrong, must be companies house I guess!

[Cyberdragon]

Monkey Boy don't be fooled as it is often the employee's who are the last to hear the truth. However you're a broker me thinks so your division is probably alright.

Maybe so, but there are quite a few "Ocean Sky" companies listed on the Companies House website which are still operating. A company is really just a lot of paperwork in a filing cabinet. Companies are created and dissolved, often with little or no change in the material world. To keep everyone guessing, money is often moved from company to company for "financial" reasons. In the past, I've receive a payslip from one company one month, and a different company the next. Not a big deal in itself and often just a legal form of tax avoidance (which is legal as opposed to tax evasion which is illegal).

BUT.... Monkey Boy, you might have just as well thrown a bucket of petrol on a small flame, threatening to cause something to burn out of control. You came across as being OVERLY defensive. If you know something, now's the time to 'fess up.

Receivers required?

Accounts not filed on time?

Chief Executive ousted?

Certainly looks like everything is fine ?!?!?

Monkey Boy's location says "in a world of my own" - How appropriate!

You're all correct of course - you all know far more than me, obviously

[LGW Vulture]

So Monkey, I presume someone has stepped in to save this entity then? Things were certainly looking grim a few weeks ago!

"We plan to take the company to the next level."

Which will mean even higher handling fees at MAN. As a 4 times a year MAN man I donīt like these news.

Hope there is a competitor some time. (fortunately there is a choice at Luton)

"The downturn has given us the opportunity us to offer a full range of services for our customers and we hope to be one of the leading names in each of the categories."

Eerrm, am I the only one finding it odd that only the downturn has given them the opportunity? Does that mean they did not offer the full range of services before?

I hate this marketing speech stuff.

[Captain Earle]

Well its all very strange, maybe its a different company because according to the records Ocean Sky Aviation Ltd is in receivership.
