Is that the purchase of the new Aston Martin? I thought that Longmint directors leased those?

Doubt there is anything left to mortgage. Surely any new money could go to paying the staff, supplires and aircraft owners first.
Mind you would mind an Aston myself at the impending auction:rolleyes:

They could also remortgage Newick Park Country Hotel ,worth a few quid

I only heard about a new purchase when the rumour was the other company pulled out.

Oh maybe there is a God after all.

Got myself twisted in what is/was rumoured.
Is there a purchase because someone else pulled out of a deal and Longmint are stepping in or has the purchase fallen through because the other party pulled out?

Interesting to see who would/will get into bed with that management team!

EM

sorry about that :ugh:

What I meant to say was:

I heard about the new company but only when the story was being told that they had declined LONGMINTS offer to purchase

I never was very quick off the mark. Recent events may have come to light and the company felt they would do better alone.

If its true they had a very narrow escape

I thought the possible 'purchase' was the one mentioned last year and that because Longmint had not paid as agreed - an amount by a certain date [no surprise there then] - the seller told them to get lost and pulled out of the deal. If this is correct then this 'rumor' is in fact old news. The pulling out is not though.

As for re mortgaging or other finance, not too sure there is anyone out there stupid enough to entertain them. But in the end it won't make much difference to the inevitable. Just a minor delay.

Going by other internet available data, buying companies is what "longmint" is good at - They're just have no idea of how to manage them once they have them!

Can't remember if that was in the Times or a financial paper...

ExMAGE

Did you feel that?

There was a massive shudder at the mere thought of getting into bed with any of longmint (mis)management team. :yuk:

Safe sex is essential
 

Let's hope that no one is desperate enough to get into bed with any one of the Longmint directors.

We should not be breeding from people with their particular character flaws. We are screwed up enough without more like them.

It did amuse me that in an earlier post lowfat had suggested that WNW's advances had been turned down by Lucy. Does she get enough advances to be particular?

Yes the thought of another company being run into the ground does send a shudder down my spine.

Sadly the papers don't seem to have picked up on Longmint just old references to Erinaceous. They are a bit busy elasewhere.

The mere thought is a prophylatic

CAA
 

"Rumour" has it that the CAA are back at Sterling Helicopters today:confused:

Whilst rumors are about I saw this on the UK police budget Cut thread. Are they trying to ground all police units!

Nightowl

I would imagine that there is not much for the CAA to see there at the moment, can't imagine that an actual Longmint (mis)manager would be present.

They also need to amend there website a tad as many pages should now be blank!

From what I have read I would be surprised if there was anyone there except the "rats".

I thought that the "Rats" left first - and took all the money!

I've been away a while and this threads gone all quiet...

Did everyone get paid? Did they get the line flying back?

What's the news?

Last I heard on the grapevine; not everyone had got paid and not seen or heard of them returning to flying:confused:

Yes what is the news? Is there any news? :confused:

It appears that there is still no AOC and very few contract left tomorrow is the 28th go back 14 days and you will see that the word was out about National Grids contract going after a fortnight so if a fairy godmother or a wicked witch can cast a spell now might be an opertune moment :rolleyes:

Nitram,

Thanks for the update.

I've checked for FGM and WW traffic and there doesn't appear to be any plans logged for this area...

End of the month the Part 145 is due for renewal....
