1 further point, I do wonder what happens with the DB pension liabilities and whether this was transferred from Bond - Babcock - CHC or whether there is a separate trust fund setup. When CHC bought it for £10m, did they also take on the historical DB fund liabilities from decades previous? Hmm.
The "old Bond" DB pension liabilities do sit with CHC, but purely as a result of the purchase of the Helikopter Services Group by CHC in 1999. |

It may be worth examining the beneficial owners of CHC Group for insight into this determination by CMA. Do you know who actually owns CHC?
This CMA report (the full fat 229 pages) refers to Bain Capital Credit LP and Cross Ocean Partners Management LP in particular. https://www.baincapitalcredit.com/ Cross Ocean Partners |

Let's be honest, it's not the copilots that will be targeted is it.

Doesn’t surprise me to be fair. Had the CMA not intererfered, OHS wouldn’t exist. One would think the declining market isn’t there to keep 4 operators afloat and that OHS are in the most vulnerable position.
How long will they last? Running an AOC and all the positions that need to be legally in place is very expensive. Babcock really did have a race to the bottom mentality and I believe CHC for example recently cut ties with the Danish work they had gained from Babcock due to profitability. Perhaps this was the plan? Give the CMA what they want but leave a “viable business” on paper unviable? Or perhaps they just have too many staff? I seem to recall when the CHC / Babcock merger was on the cards, CHC were lean and Babcock were heavy with staff positions. Perhaps they are now just cutting the fat and needing to run it as lean as possible so that the company survive? CHC seem to be a lot busier recently. |
