I'm expecting two of them to show up on my door step at the start of Jan, so they better be flying!

they are still flying, nov been a quite month for all, been doing Miami for P and O, plus Lagos, and stuff for Air Mauritus. however gearing up for 1 a/c to go to KL for hadj, and 2 to saudi, 1 back from usa after having 4 doors added, and a little light refurbishing, i.e more seats.

also a full programme for Travel City Direct next year, rumors are, 4 or 5 flights from LGW to SFB, and 3 or 4 from MAN to SFB.

So far sale not affected us much, as Bath family ( behind Bath Travel ) have brought us, and want to keep us as the same, with a few improvements I am sure.

Having Bournemouth (or Hurn to me) Airport I can reliably inform you that 2 B747's appear to be in use at present and occasionally trundle in and out. (XE and XH for the anoraks). All the rest are parked up at Filton/Gatwick/Amsrwedam/San Antonio.

Hi All

Just to remind all you ex-EAAC people that today is the last day you can register to take EAAC and Paul Stoddart to an employment tribunal.

If you go to www.employmenttribunals.gov.uk and follow the links you can do it there.

Anyone else notice the appearance of OZJet on the rear wing of the minardi F1 cars this weekend in Indy? Talk about a slap in the face for the ex European crews!!

If he has enough money to start a new LOCO in Oz what about the people in EGHH who are still owed money?

These guys and girls will never get their money back just like Cougar

It is time for them to realise what was good is just a memory now

Engineer Thanks for your comment. Not appreciated. to start saying we won't get our money when we have been told we will get something by the end of June / beginning of July through Moore Stephens.



Moku Ozjet has been on the tail of minardi for most of the season. Yes it is a slap in the face but it is also nice knowing that Ozjet has not been given the go ahead. The problem with Paul Stoddart is that he has lots of companies some with money, some without. EAAC has no money and has since gone in to a CVA. I know it is not fair on us that have no job and are owed money but we will be getting something, not much but something anyway. I can see why he won't transfer some of his money around, he has made money from his other companies and it is his money so he has the choice of what to do with it. If he had any sense of kindness or any heart whatsoever he would do the right thing, but as we all know, that is not going to happen.

Here's to hoping.
