Is it true that AV8Air have gone bust??

Crews already teained are currently being retained. Crews in training and waiting to start are being laid off. 757 operation will not now happen. All ops staff have been laid off. 767 will continue to operate for the short term. Good luck to all but the future is not looking good.
arse.

Ok…
Av8 haven’t and wont be going bust – the tour operator behind them – CT2 – tried to bring all thier flights in house but it is prooving to be too expensive and will return to their previous ways of selling.
The reason the B752 is parked up at MAN is because they dont currently have their british AOC nad therefore cannot operate it on thier own flights yet. They do fly it approx once a week though to keep the aircraft out of short term storage and for crew training sorties.
The B763 on the otherhand is operated and flightdeck cre provided by Icelandair on AV8s behalf, but the cabin crew are all employed by Av8… i think! Damp leasing i believe is the phraise here?

The flights will continue to be operated by Icelandair, its just the British side of things that appears to have gone down. Another complicated one that hasn’t really gone bust just like EAL.
