Once a workaholic always one. The selfish 'B' has only gone over seas and left beauty sk behind who could do that??, feeding her with lies I bet and chasing whoever will have him. What an , if anyone has her contact details feel free to PM them to me I will let her see what an honest real man is.

Thats off my chest now!

Any news on AJ's venture and expected start date for him, be interesting to see if any of the ex EA are part of his crew.

Attention Moderator !

How about putting a stop to ExFlyJem's inane, onetrack, pointless, irritating posts? Maybe he should be on a virtual Sex-Offenders register?

Fourthed !

As I stated about 325 posts ago .....

"Perhaps because you are an annoying little tw*t with an obvious personality disorder (apart from more IDs than you can 'shake a stick at') and completely miss the actual purpose of this thread which is to swap relevant information primarily between the poor sods (and their affected families) who have lost their jobs in this collapse of a fairly major operator.

So please go and play somewhere else (or get help) - you offend me, let alone the people who are directly involved in this sorry situation.

If there was ever a justification for bringing back the 'report to moderator' button you are it !

Mods - when you see and delete Disagree's post above please feel free to take mine with it."


This very sick puppy needs putting in care (somewhere else)

My apologies to all that I have offended. I have read what a I have been and I should keep my feelings and thoughts regarding sk to myself.

Taking myself off this forum for good.

I worked for the company a long time ago when it was Janes Aviation and occasionally drop by to see what's happening. It must be said that the thread is becoming an embarrassment, thanks to the puerile postings therein. Such a shame to see it being polluted.

Emerald re-born????

Last week whilst waiting at Blackpool for the glorious sea-side weather to blow through, it was a real pleasure to hear the sound of Darts once again as Budgie 'IM' was put through it's paces during a spirited Engine run on the south side of the Airfield.
Following our exotic jaunt to Cleveleys and Cockeram , had a chat with some old faces from the past working the Ramp & it seems Mr. 'J' is extremely serious in getting at least 2 OFF the 748's flying once again for a new UK Venture!
Maybe a reclusive few still adverse to flying in daylight could find this tempting, so good, bad or indifferent, work is work and now may be a good to time to speak with the 'Usual Suspects' !!!

If AJ does get it going again then he knows he can count on a determined and experienced bunch of crew and engineers to make it succeed.

My fervent wish is that this time he keeps the CAA on side and doesn't tell porkies to the customers.

Nowhere else comes close for fun and great colleagues.

He can also count on a dedicated and experienced bunch of crew, engineers and all the other people he STILL owes money to to ensure it will FAIL.

Would anyone who was shafted by the Emerald "management" go back willingly? Not that he'd have me, but if AJ showered me with gold and got Kylie as my "personal" assistant, I'd still tell him to stick where the sun doesn't shine. Sideways.

Afterall, MOB was an incompetant fool, but who put him in the job in the first place? I'll give you a hint, his initials were AJ...........

I am not a fan of AJ but wish his endevour well. (Hopefully we won't see MOB again) He may well provide flying jobs to guys who haven't fared so well since Emerald went bust. I wish success to anyone who can do that for them.
It was apparent for a long time before it went pop that it was looming. People talked of little else, other than would they get paid at the end of the month.
Anyone who didn't want to risk being owed wages had lots of time to leave, like i did. (In fact the tw@t never paid me several weeks holiday owed).Whether they could find alternative employment or not is another matter and in fact the main thrust of my point - that they couldn't. So, they will exercise the same judgement call again, if and when there become jobs available. As for business creditors - well, that's a normal risk that businesses run when they extend credit.
No, i wouldn't go back either.

From The Eddie Stobart Air thread at http://www.pprune.org/forums/showthread.php?t=242694
The Freight flights will initially be small or medium turbo props to service the Scottish islands for a Stobbart customer. B737 are a possibility for the future.

Is this a coincidence or I am I putting 2 +2 together to make 5 ??
Your comments and observations appreciated.
Be lucky

I believe that the 748s at BLK are regularly taxied.

Rumour Control has it that AJ is to start with cargo to I.O.M.
