Hey Dangly - did it have a 'For Sale' sign on it..? :E

Or perhaps a "Police Aware" sign that they know it's been abandoned? :P

I would put a for sale sign on it but I have to assume it is parked right by his office window so he can look at it all day!

Australia the lucky country, if you have criminal intentions and the ability to con people! We are not known to be too bright in some sectors of business!

Porter, his white Porsche SUV was out the front when I drove past about 2 hours ago.

If that's the case, I wonder if there's any moves by his 'equity partners' to restrict his movements?

Watching a doco on telly last night, fraud case. Old mate defrauded 1.5 Mill, caught and sentenced to 36 years prison, if he paid the money back, sentence dropped to 6 years.

Australia, probably the most corrupt and slack 'western democracy's' on the planet. It would give most 3rd world countries a run for their money.

Liens generally require the goods to be in possession. Charges generally require a prior agreement or a court order. What is needed is a restraining order and that can happen once proceedings are instituted.

Amazing how many hours they have clocked in those aircraft in a short space of time.

The 2017 Vixen has 1700 hours. That’s less than 3 years. That’s a solid figure, especially when you have 30+ aircraft in the same fleet doing similar hours.

Does anyone know to what scale Soar is downsizing? How many instructor job losses?

Seeks a bit off doesn't it 7700? Assuming 40 Aircraft (I think they have 50) have done similar hours, so 1700 x 40 that means 68,000hrs, says 402 students that had enrolled in 2018 which means about 169hrs for each student and yet only 6 have graduated. Seems a tad odd right? Also how was none of this detected by the Government prior to the complaint being raised? If only 6 graduated that should have put up all sorts of red flags for an abysmal pass rate!!

I would like to see the hours flown to gain an RPC/RPL and how many extra blocks of time the students were bullied into buying out of their own money. Now before you go on about 'the students should stand up for their rights' have a think about the power imbalance that exists. I have seen it, I know what goes on in these environments

Have a think about any of the major frauds that have been perpetrated in this country and how many of them were 'detected' by Government. Pathetic, corrupt Australia.

I have an ex student dealing with significant mental health issues over this type of bull****, times that by 402 - 6 = 396 Soar Students.

I'm not going to let up on this bull****.

There are also regular students outside of the vet-fee system including a regular poster here who saw the light and went elsewhere. You’d have to think that they were the small minority though.

This alleged system of upfront payments for the full 200 hours being required from Box Hill upon enrolment sounds interesting to say the least.

This is exactly what happened.

Delay progress deliberately, dangle the carrot of the next phase/license infront of people and present them with an invoice to allow them to do the flight test to walk away with the license!

Has happened to plenty, some buckled and paid up. Some left and have finished/are in the process of finishing elsewhere at a greater cost out of principle! Most will let them win!

How it's taken this long to unravel so spectacularly is beyond me!

One guy on the Pilots Lounge fb page said 100% of the students were on the VET loans.
This corruption geos all the way to the top, see the video with McCormack. "That's what this government is all about...Neel's doing a fantastic job" etc. There is no way that they didn't know what was going on, another massive money laundering exercise using VET loans and vulnerable aviation students with stars in their eyes.
Pride comes before a fall, and putting yourself on the rich list worth 66 million was probably not such a great idea because he can hardly plead bankruptcy three months later...can he?
RA-Aus must have been glad of 950 memberships, too.

I would make an offer for some of those avionics, they are probably worth more than the aircraft.

Probably the work of someone at LTF...

Just saying, those Foxbats might well be a real bonanza for Tristar... (no pun intended)

So with all this... what happens to the poor students with fees paid up-front and courses un/under-delivered? Are they covered by Box Hill's Tuition Assurance?

Half of the Learn To Fly fleet looks to be laid up at Tooradin after off runway landings and whatever else caused an engine to have to be removed.

Get Neel’s passport cancelled. Both Australian and Indian so that he can’t scuttle back to India. Force him to face the music!

Yes, think Puneet Puneet. Still chasing that bastard I think.
