Still Going !!
 

Fly Blackpool - Trial flight lessons at Blackpool Airport

isn't that considered as false advertising?

That's a cranking good deal I managed to get 2 before they run out I fancy doing the lights at night if possible
Thank you airforce

lartsa !!

Did you not read the thread ?

........or perhaps I missed some sarcasm.

Don'tbe silly,if your "height" was 14 stones, you'd have a problem with reality.
According to my 'puter, ZEN are the hosting Co. "holding" the page in the second link....If you are the owner, please contact them.

Reading between the lines, if you don't pay your bill,Zen will suspend your service!

note:"274 bought"....that's over £ 13 K...and with the T's &C's allowing only one rescheduling.....

Then there's the picture of the pretty white aeroplane, which doesn't look like the Slingsby that the buyers will actually get to ride in (maybe)....just sayin.

Mr average
I have a app on my phone what shows new posts ,I looked at the last page and saw a post from Airforce1 with a link to a groupon buy from blackpool .
I didn't see any sarcasm on his post he said he was still going ,I thought if it was good enough for him I too would go , I took his post as an endorcement
also I am not a fixed wing pilot I don't know specific aircraft shapes /types there was a photo of a plane

Thanks a bunch guys

Hopefully you paid by credit card...

Unfortunately for you what AirForceNone meant by "Still Going!!" was he was surprised to see the company might still be operating, he hadn't bought anything from Groupon.

270m grass strip in a fully loaded PA28?
 

Some people never learn. ARC expired on the 27/08. 'Hedging' my bets it's 'ploughing' on regardless. Ooops another illegal flight.

Groupon deal 'no longer available', according to their website.

GPS virtually touching the compass !!??

I suppose the FlyBpl-type response would be: 'with a GPS who needs a compass?'!

They've always been happy to accept a myriad of other defects - this would be seen as a bonus.

It's a fact of life, no one can stop the murg from troyding at Egnh!

Slightly off topic but, i flew in to egnh a few weeks ago in my ev97 Eurostar from barton which has got me thinking, can anyone explain why the flying schools clubs at egnh are buying used c150's or 152's rather than a rotax powered aircraft eg ev97 Eurostar or similar?

I've moved from Blackpool to barton just because of the cost. The ev97 I now fly burns only 11 l/hr of fuel. The C150/152's at egnh burn double that at 21-22 l/hr and the pa 28's a whopping 35 l/hr. The fuel saving is passed onto the customer which results in very economical & affordable flying.
Question is why are there zero of these aircraft based at Blackpool?

Are you allowed to train for a PPL(A) in a Eurostar or other Microlight?

So what is this lot going to do now?

Very little sign of any activity at Blackpool for around a year, but the website is now referring to an operation from Halfpenny Green trading as Flightpath UK

His hanger just gone up sale,444.000 or near offer.

Just found out that RM was declared bankrupt in September 2017:

https://www.thegazette.co.uk/notice/2870887

Many will be delighted at the news and no doubt can't wait till the 15th March (sentence date). RM like us all has his faults but having known him and his ways for close on 21 years he is an down to earth decent enough chap-unlike most of the back stabbers on here who can't wait to hit the keyboard. He gave many myself included their early steps into aviation and for that if nothing else I for one will always be grateful.

I am delighted that someone who has flown illegally, endangering the lives of at least 3 others on just this one escapade has been found guilty of such deeds.
I hope he is punished severely for the 7 offences he committed.

How touching!

Notes to editors

• Robert Murgatroyd (DOB: 19 May 1966) was convicted of the following charges:
  • Endangering the safety of an aircraft
  • Endangering the safety of a person
  • Illegal public Transport
  • Flying otherwise than in accordance with a licence
  • Flying otherwise than in accordance with any conditions/limitations contained in the aircraft flight manual
  • Failure to comply with the insurance regulation
  • Flying without the aircraft flight manual

What are the odds, do you think, of him actually turning up on the 15th of March for sentencing?

A former business partner of his owns a light twin...........................just saying :hmm:

7 counts this time......;-)

Light twin and what?
 

A former director of FlyBlackpool Ltd is the owner of an Aztec, according to G-INFO. However, this aircraft has not had a current CofA for several months.

Obvious risk of absconding - remand before sentencing would have been sensible in this case.

We shall see on the 15th.
