Where are you when we need you......

Be very interested in your latest appraisal of the current economic situation and outlook.

From where I sit the future seems to look remarkably grim.

I miss his insight too but have you seen the stats in Flight Training News or heard that BA have only lost £531 million last year not counting the volcanic fiasco or the strikes, that Avgas is over £7 per gallon here at Cranfield and that the previous government stuffed everyone in just about every sector by overspending, targeting the non-productive types with handouts and generally stuffing things up?

But other than that, everything's great I just won a new 2 yr contract and might be able to light the BBQ around September if I ration the gas in this cylinder!!!! but it will be a bring your own meat type party.....

It's not just the fuel that's expensive at Cranfield, on a recent pleasure sortie a friend and I were charged over £50 for a single engine landing fee - if there's ever to be a definite upturn for the poor guys (and girls) trying to scrape together enough cash to train, blatant money making institutions like this will not be involved in instigating it!
