At last i see sense emerging
here is my thumbnail sketch
25 chaps (marshalls)………there were 25 clock cards on the wall last time i was allowed in there
lets say £90.00 per hour charged out, 8 hours per day
25 x 8 x 90 = £18,000/day
18,000 x 5 = £90,000 per week
90,000 x 4 = £360,000 per month
2.73 million divided by £360,000 = about 7.5 months work
I think they started working in about July…………ok so about 9 months ago….maybe some of my figs are out a bit, maybe only 20 guys, maybe only £50.00 per hour, point still stands
this doesn’t include VOC employees salaries or buying any bits.
100% increase in contractors costs kinda says to me the need another 9 months to finish it.
IMHO It was never gonna happen………….ask anyone actually involved in aviation their true gut feelings
major sponsers ain’t that stupid to put that sort of money into something so flakey.
go on everyone take a pop at me, i don’t care anymore but moggy’s point is well made and exactly what i have been saying all along….. as a reminder…….[B]”But lottery money meant for good causes has been wasted on keeping Marshalls profitable and some self-serving Vulcan fanatics in (presumably) gainful employment for the last few years.”
I very ragerly agree with moggy but i do this time
here is what to do…….take an estimate and then double it in cost and time…….for example, Beech 18, estimated 5 years and here we are in year 11, estimated £25,000 now about £50,000
stahlhelm on ready for the flak heading my way
