flyBMI about to fold

[geardown1]

a recently published article makes for some interesting reading. I can't post it as i'm new on this but a google search of flybmi news will show it. It's written by the kid Alex Macheras who is no more than a nobody with some social media following however if what he's saying is correct, it doesn't look good for the company.

This is the article referred to - make of it what you will:

Looks Bad. Think I might be at the Job centre Monday. :-(

Anyone need a pilot. ATPL.4000TT, 2500 Multi Crew Jet. Command recomendations. Current as of yesterday. Based Glasgow, or commuting contract.

Either that or a taxi driver ?

[Nil further]

You would get RHS easy with that or FR nae bother.

[FlyingApe]

Yes,but based where?

[Icanseeclearly]

I sincerely hope this is not the case.

would Loganair snap up some of the Jets and crews? I know they are operating some.

if true Good luck folks..

[FlyingApe]

That's the betting. I hope so.
I think a Tartan uniform would suit me.

Flybe/Connect/Virgin (whatever we are at the moment) are desperate for DEC onto the Q400 with a GLA base probably available immediately.

[Nil further]

Frying pan fire ??

[Livesinafield]

Flybe are desperate for DEC especially at Glasgow.

Apparently crews are getting an update at 18:30 so we shall see.

[STN Ramp Rat]

sadly looks like its about to be all over, the website is not accepting any more bookings

[davidjohnson6]

All over - see www.flybmi.com

[Icanseeclearly]

Bugger, good luck folks

[geardown1]

What a real shame, feel sorry for all the staff and crew affected by this. It feels like every other week and airline is collapsing.

Sad to see 8 aircraft sat at BRS right now. all the best to crews.

Good luck guys - awful to see this happening again to great people. Lots of recruiting going on though so hopefully you’ll find something quickly

[Auxtank]

Seems so wrong that this has happened for God's sake.

Good Luck to all you chaps and chapesses involved in finding pastures new, etc.

Sad news. Been there twice. Rotten for all the employees, and many of the airline's suppliers. Best of luck to you all.
