Greetings

Hi Dave - different day, same with our friend, eh.

Just to think, he was thanking you a few years ago.

I'm just getting a website up and running with numpty no 2 friend, very similar
to the one I did for numpty no 1 during that era, if you recall.

realistically we need somebody to host a robert weaver/ferry pilot page. Then we need to hit it hard, move it to the top of the google rankings. Needless to say it makes it hard when people look online for services, and the first thing that comes up are court judgements

Don't worry about the threats of legal action from the Quimper caravan park. I'm still waiting for mine to arrive after some weeks, or more to the point my Lawyer daughter is!

A matter is not defamatory if it is true.
And you have to have a reputation to uphold before it can be reduced by defamatory imputation. If you have no reputation, you have no reputation to protect.
Ergo: commencing civil action (along with requiring a substantial amount into a solicitors Trust Fund) would be a precarious path for the subject of this thread...

Why is it so quiet on the Robert Weaver News Network ??

Even RT TV has great news stories brewed up every day.
Can we not get more news on this guy ?
It's too quiet !!

I do think that the "no news is good news" analogy is spot on when it comes to Mr Weaver.

It is interesting that Robert Weaver / Sky Ferry who skirts the law now uses phony claims of the law to attack the people he scammed.

Would love to see him try to do this in my state, which provides for treble damages against phony claims.

Weaver strikes Again

Another victim, $16000 bucks down, plane got as far as Geneva before Weaver gone "sick" 10 days ago.
Is anyone getting anywhere near nailing this guy?

They say that a fool and his money are easily parted, but this is getting ridiculous, a simple google search on RW would have revealed a lot of interesting information.

How many times has this been said about RW. Some people are fools and look no further than the ends of their noses and will use his services because they are probably cheaper than the competition. Short term gain for long term pain!

Maybe the FAA should pull his licence. If they fail to act on reports of criminal activities by someone holding one of their licences, then clearly there is something wrong with the system.
FAA and FIFA comes to mind here.

Lurcherman,

Just wondering how you got to hear about the latest victim, and if you can tell us more?

Would also be interesting to learn the registration domain of the aircraft, and if not N reg how Weaver (assuming it was him actually flying it) could operate legally with only his FAA ticket?

My guess would be..... the stuffed owner has been frantically phoning around attempting to secure a genuine ferry pilot.

Not sure how the FAA could come into play here. In the end he's (allegedly) committing fraud, not reckless flying so it's more a contract terms violation or worse but not a breach of flight regulations. Then it's interesting how the can of worms opens when the airframes reach EU and never in US...

Just wondering how you got to hear about the latest victim, and if you can tell us more?
For those who haven't done it yet, you may want to join the AIRCRAFT FERRY group on FB. Some trustworthy chaps and companies there, worth loads of information.

Best luck the all owners!

If anyone knows about his MVT through India please let us know.


Thank you.

How is he qualified to teach for the Dispatcher certificate? Does he have an Adv. Ground Instructor certificate? What appropriate experience does he have? From reading the Seneca crash thread et al he hasn't exactly demonstrated competency in the area.
