I hear they may have stopped RA-390 work, if so could it be a consequence of this?

Their hangar has been very quiet of late. Only really seen King Airs and the odd Premier - Hawker work appears to have gone to nothing.

Is it at Blackbushe or Oxford that are facing redundancies? I hear Gama are recruiting at Fairoaks (rotary B1/B2) and also possibly for KingAir B1 at Farnborough.

X933, I see on the Hawker Beech web site that Gama are now an Authorized Service Center for the beech range, I wonder if that's had an effect on Premiair?

How are things now at Premiair? Has financing improved since Battersea was sold?
