Air Taxi Service

Im not sure if this is the right place to post this but..

A client of mine has asked me whether i know of any Air taxi services that would be able to fly someone over from northern France to Leeds, and also about 6 people from Leeds to Inverness (not just once but im not sure how often). I have the name of a couple of executive charter companies but he is not after anything flash (especially not a BBJ), just a basic flight that wont cost the earth.

Does anyone know of any Air taxi services that would be suitable and a rough guide price that i can give him.

Snoop AIR TAXI ??

I know of a chap who has some spare capacity up until the 24th December.

A nice 6 seater, polished wooden interior, deluxe velvet heated seats. Only trouble is he has to feed the turbo-charged flying reindeer every 2 hours.

Oh and did I mention he does quite like to drink and fly !!!!

PM if you need his number, but usually if you write your details to Mr S Claus, the post man delivers.

Regards

Goldfinger

ps- Freight is no problem at all.
