Newcastle Aero Club

Hi Gang.

GonTek - Cheers!!!!

As regard direct debits for membership, JC is still holding the fort for administrators - he will know exactly what's what although I suspect the bank accounts are now closed - the club was £20K overdrawn.

Until later

PS. A bottle of what Hope 2 Fly has been drinking.

Hello true, loyal members:

At the end of the day Newcastlepilot provided some extremely useful information, however I do not blame him for removing his posts as I was "pulled" for what I understood to be true information, shame PPRUNE has got to this stage with people monitoring the site incase somebody mentions something that "may hit a nerve".

Anyway, whatever - nature of the beast.

GonTek, unfortunately the handbags will always be wafted in peoples faces - a lot of very annoyed & frustrated people contributing to this site and still we wait for some answers from RMT administrators.

With certain ex chairman skiing in Geneva, the downfall of the club is hardly at the forefront of his mind...

Yes, it WILL be a case of "watch this space" this week - with true & loyal members wanting the best proposal to be selected and certain other members will be wanting whoever takes over to fall flat on their faces.

Good luck.

Hello ALL,

hi topjet and noiseabatement,

I have noticed a lot of posts being removed and others
from pprune. The sooner either elia or whoever esle
gets the place the better we all will beeeeeeeee.

All we want is the club to keep running and have or
afternoon beers and relax and talk the flying stuff........

I hope RMT make a decision quickly this is dragging on a
little I suppose,I hope they pick the best proposal.

Does anyone know the people from rmt??????
Are they for the club to survive??????
Or do they want thier money and move on?????

who will they choose hey guys, I wonder!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

safe flying

mike

Well said Captain Noise.
True members and not those with other motives just want the old NAC spirit and none of the bickering and hopefully this will happen as they say in Arabic "Inshallah ,God willing

At the end of the day all of the people will not be happy all of the time.

It is a shame that the miscreant's who can't think of anything positive tend to urinate on other peoples pyrotechnics.

Just like a marriage vow "for better,for worse " the outcome will be known very soon and we will grin or grimace, wait and see.

To the skiing ex chairman, Break a leg with my blessing

Best Regards All

(spleen vented Good Night )

Is that déjà vu? My post - 10th January 2005 12:39 your reply - posted 10th January 2005 11:31

We need to discuss predictive outcomes of an organisation called Camelot - if you have the gift

Genuinely - one of the cleverest things I have ever seen on Pprune.

Hi Gang.

The RMT administrators, Mike Pott & Linda Farnish - seem OK, have spoken a few times after mailing them various documents etc.

Yeh, the sooner the better we get an announcement - imagine how the proposed bidders feel!

Ex Chairman skiing in Switzerland.... bet that toupee looks great in the low winter sun.

Nice one Mike - how you doing man, baring up!!

I have "reserved" the rest of the week for possible celebrations - hope the leave days aren't wasted!!!

Cheers folks.

I don't think it's unreasonable to expect a statement on why the successful bid won. However, I wouldn't hold your breath for anything else, especially why the others were not successful. It's akin to 'rubbing their nose in it'

Also bear in mind that last month the administrators were working on an equally emotional case (for those involved anyhow), and next month will have moved on to something new. Whilst I'm sure they may feel a little bit of sympathy for some individuals as they do their job, I'm pretty sure 'we' do not fall into that bracket. Remember, no-one here has lost all they've got (house, wife, etc.) as a result of the aeroclub folding.

That's what I think anyway.

Exclamation Elvis At Heathrow

Mike Halls :

If there is any truth in Joe Le Toff's previous post (last page)
Elvis may well be with RMT as we speak.

Sean 377 :

I agree with you Sean to a certain extent, We as a "club " do not exist any more and have no rights and RMT will do their best for those owed money and of course they will want paying. And not cheap either.
Again the innocent ones did not deserve what happened but as for those who messed in the nest now they are sitting in it.
Tough !!!




Elvis Air !!!!!


Its just a rumour.

Morning gang.

Excellent points from Sean377 & GonTek.

I think the feedback from the RMT has been extremely poor.

I have obviously spoken to them a few times and have asked them on 2 or 3 occasions for some official feedback or progress statement.

However, if you are one of our clubs so called & self named "elite" then you have a god given right to any information from RMT before they even know it themselves. I post that in response to a phone call from a couple of days ago.
To that "elite" member who phoned me, you have the morals of a sewer rat and the courage of a hedgehog - open your eyes man, your grip on the club is over - FINISHED.

Phew, thing things and the people you have to deal with in life....


Thanks

Sampson avaition

Hello ALL,

Just a quick rumour that sampson aviation has the
highest bid, so they may have the club by friday.

apparently all the other bids were lower and so they
were not considered.

Anyone else got any news??????????

Hi aiglon,
It seems that the same written words are interpreted differently by different people.

Expressing a feeling is a human right.

My previouse post is badly expressed and will be amended to avoid missinterpritation.
It may not be me that prepares the application for charitable status when that time comes if this proposal is successfull..

I glean what i can from the postings.
Peoples handles are meaningless to me, as an outsider I don't know what roles people have in your world. Quoteing the charity commission rules suggested a studied knowledge and experienced charity fieldworker or similar.
I recognised and accepted that. My posting was intended to acknowledge and reflect that.

It seems Mu beta shares that impresion or knows you as an expert and holds you in high esteem.
He seems to read the quotes as stateing a flying club with charitable purpose will not be possible.
I understood your posting to be flaging up a potentially difficult task that i am already aware of.

Could you please tell me if you know of any other general flying clubs with a charitable purpose or are you able to confirm it will be the first of its kind if successfull. or even if started up sumwhere else in this area.

Hello Members:

Hi Mike - how are you doing mate?

MMMMM - not quite sure what to make of Samsons bid - no flying training or bar, just a corporate doss house - not sure what MB's thinking is behind it.

Well, we can but wait.

H999 - Where did you here that, in a pub?


Thanks

Hi mu beta,
Thanks for the conscirn, I will pick up again.
I Believe Achieving the target amount is basically a numbers, time & luck thing. The more people who know & are trying and leangth of time available increase the chance, especially for a good cause. Prospects are slim for this idea on the time & numbers bit but not lost yet.

I am confident any difficulties with achieving charitable purpose could be overcome.

I think No need to give up hope on Flying School part it will happen anyway. the only question will be how much say members or customers have in effecting their freedom to fly and range of activities undertaken. There will be as many flying schools as driving schools soon.

No News yet
but still keep up
Hope2

Hi flyers

Noise;- Thanks for responding. I think it is important for whichever \'plan\' gets the planes off the ground to have people who identify Pro\'s & Con\'s and other issues in proposals. They can then be addressed before they become a problem. It helps to safeguard the interests of the custemers, users or members. If & when the time comes perhaps your dislikes of the charity idea can be shared & addressed

I DO NOT REPRESENT ANYONE.

I think however it would be good if the new club could try to meet the dreams of people who hope to fly but never get the oportunity.

Why come up with this ? .............
I wish I knew! ................
I came, I saw the magic mountain with a hat on. ------- It was there so I try to climb? ............. Perhaps its full of lucky rabbits ??
hope i do not fall!!!

That is meant to be a joke.
Still no news
best wishes
Hope2

Hi Gang!

Any news?

To the "member" who is going to laugh and take the p**s if a certain proposal isn't accepted - DON'T CALL US - WE'LL CALL YOU.

I HAD heard from a reliable source that iced cream seller's bid was successful - what's his name again, Mark Tony or something like that, imagine it - 2 L/H circuits and a 99 please..


Cheers

M
