I'm not at a loose end so I've only skimmed through this thread but it's clear that your use of the English language is not the major cause of mockery.

This whole sorry saga reminds me of the story of Ryan Dunlop and Hitz Radio in Scotland back in 2006-7. A young man claimed to be running an internet radio station from his garden shed getting stupid amounts of listeners globally. He managed to get national press attention and caught the interest of the radio industry.

That was of course until the authorities got involved!!!!

Hitz Radio UK - Wikipedia

I worked in the industry at the time, and to see that kind of nonsense written by journalists in the national press, and broadcast on BBC Radio 5 Live along with regional television was an embarrassment.

I guess the key difference is that Hitz actually did what it said it was doing, namely running an internet radio station. It clearly veered into fraud by completely over-estimating its listener base and selling advertising revenue on the back of those dodgy numbers.... but I suspect Atmosphere will never sell a single ticket or lift a single passenger....

diffident 20th Mar 2019 16:34

It veered into fraud raising money through schemes available in Scotland at the time, and not paying royalties for music used.

I can see that it is very different from selling airline tickets, but the comparison I am making is that of a young person, whilst delusional, is way out of their depth.

TwinAisle 20th Mar 2019 16:36

Ah, yes - obvious parallels! Thanks for the clarification.

I do wonder though whether our airline hero has any intention of starting an airline.... is this just some sort of pure scam?

Its a scam. The sad thing is, the bloke behind it doesn't realise that its a scam. He thinks he's doing well. Hence the delusional aspect in all this. Sadly for him, the more he goes on social media, and now here, the more notice someone in a position of authority is going to take.

TwinAisle 20th Mar 2019 16:54

That's the bit I'm not sure about. There's really three options...

1. He genuinely wants to start an airline and believes he can, but he can't and won't. People who invest will lose their money.
2. He wants to start an airline as a way of making money, he expects to raise so much he can skim and start an airline.
3. This is just a pure fraud; he has no intention of starting an airline but that provides a useful cover.

I can't suss out whether it is 1 or 3.

spammers1 20th Mar 2019 17:23

On so the social media continue.

Why post a B737 paint drawing from ages ago that has (c) flying colours watermark on social media?
Or is it an Essex library picture where another paint drawing is seen on the computer screen.

PDF pro/ paint shop and other programs are great tools in the right hands and dangerous in others
Just like social media

If you enlarge the (c) flying colours picture, look closely at the font and colour of dates, both these are different and not aligned.
Also the contact has no followers in social media so always suspect, unless proven otherwise that is Jason?



Captivep 20th Mar 2019 18:18

Twin Aisle - I think it's number 1. It does seem as if the airline industry attracts more than its fair share of delusional wannabes (it's a strangely seductive business, it seems).

There have, over the years, been many examples discussed on these forums. Most of them got no further than an amateurish website but some have progressed a little bit further. Many posters will remember the two bites of the cherry taken by one young individual, both of which actually resulted in aircraft being painted up and then flown on a very few revenue earning flights (Alpha One and Varsity Express).

Plod update
 
To quote OTR from distant colleague at Essex Police - "we have already been made aware and are monitoring. At moment it seems to be just Lies and fantasist Hype. Its a Round Tuit thing- when we are actually told by some poor s-d who's actually been defrauded, we'll get round tuit".

TwinAisle 20th Mar 2019 20:29

He's a busy boy....
 
Two of his Tw!tter accounts....

@jasonunsworth2 - member for 1,377 days, 70,019 tweets. That's 51 per day.
@atmosphereairuk - member for 1,439 days, 120,259 tweets. That's 84 per day.

So just these two streams have 135 tweets per day. Every day. How does he find the time to be CEO of an airline as well as a new dad??

....and that is where it is. Unless someone actually comes forward with a loss, say they put money down on one of the fundraising pages, there is very little the plod will do about it. As it stands, this is simply a Trading Standards matter for false advertising.

TwinAisle 20th Mar 2019 22:27

I suspect you're right as far as the Babylon is concerned, Diffident. But the FCA may want a chat about someone trying to raise funds based on false claims, whether money has been raised or not....

Well, Boeing will be thankful for the orders I'm sure :ugh:

Is there a link for LinkedIn? I searched and couldn't find it? Mind you, having said that, I didn't exactly spend long looking!

Here are Jason's new aircraft orders -

IF7870613B | InFlight200 1:200 | Boeing 787-8 British Airways G-ZBJB - Aviation Retail Direct

matkat 25th Mar 2019 20:10

I believe he is negotiations for a large discount, well he would with the fleet size he is ordering lol

TwinAisle 25th Mar 2019 20:16

Serious question....
 
Can anyone name a currently produced aircraft type with more than 150 seats that Jason HASN’T said he is going to operate?

treadigraph 25th Mar 2019 20:37

Boeing 747-8?

TwinAisle 25th Mar 2019 20:38

He’s mentioned a whole host of 747s, although he’s been quiet on them for ages. Pretty sure the -8 was on his shopping list!

The latest from Unsworth.......

Letter of Intention to Acquire Jet Airways, restructure, rebrand, and restore Jet Airways into a 5 star airline.

Dear Board of Directors at Jet Airways, Etihad Airways, State Bank of India, and Punjub National Bank, Prime Minister Narendra Modi, and Prime Minister Theresa May,

Atmosphere Intercontinental Airlines UK PVT LTD is a startup with a 5 year business plan for a premium full service airline to base at London Stansted airport, our board of directors has been exploring the option of purchasing and rebranding, restructuring an existing airline/airlines to restore into a profitable airline that will secure existing jobs, and create jobs in the aviation sector. As we fast head towards Brexit in the UK we wish to support business growth and creation, we have monitored with interest the Jet Airways situation unfold as it has done, our belief is the airline can be restored, with the assistance of all present shareholders, especially, Etihad Airways, our business plan and brand was inspired by Etihad Airways, and the gaps we can see in the market, and therefore my/our request is to be considered as shareholders, within Jet Airways, we have intentions to introduce our brand within the UK market as well as India, Thailand and UAE, Dubai, starting with direct routes, between London Stansted, Bangkok, Mumbai, Delhi and Abu Dhabi.

We have a team of highly skilled aviation consultants who are advising our board of directors and will work with us to rebrand, and restructure Jet Airways into a highly successful and profitable well respected and trusted airline once more.

Yours Sincerely

Founder & CEO

What I would give to see the contents of that business plan!
(Not investment, before you get too excited Mr Unsworth!)

If you say so 27th Mar 2019 08:30

Just when you think Jason can make no more of a fool of himself - he rolls out the big gun.....he unleashes the LOI! What on God's Earth is that?!? Somewhat lacking in content perhaps?

Jason - if you are watching (I'm sure you are), please be assured that with every step you take you are simply reinforcing the universally held view that you are (at best) a misguided buffoon with no grasp of reality!

Any idiot can make a long sentence by putting commas where there ought to be full stops, that's what Jason has done, he's clearly an expert. (see?) :O

I feel this needs some amendments, G-ARZG, to bring it more into line with JU style. Might I suggest:

Deer Mr Mulenberk (or may I call you Denis?)

I am an exput wiv computers, I even had a speek&Spell... but the batries went.

TwinAisle 28th Mar 2019 11:01

And in addition to post #25:

Off to Mumbai, I will go!
To fix Jet Air, it's full of woe
They need me - and a new logo
And they may have an Airbus!

[Chorus:]
Let the wind blow high
Let the wind blow low
I've applied to be Jet's CEO
But do I have a clue? Hell NO!
But I really want an Airbus!


All those naughty people on PPRuNe say
That I'm a fake and should go away
But I'm best mates with Theresa May -
And SHE'LL buy me an Airbus!

[Chorus:]
Let the wind blow high
Let the wind blow low
​​​​​​​Off to Downing Street I'll go
I'll be PM and then I'll know
I'll get use of an Airbus!!
