Right. Let me make try and make this clear for everyone before the wild rumours start to spiral out of control!
This is purely a testing the waters scenario, to see if there is someone out there who has the interest and the cash to keep Classic Flight going beyond Mike Collett.
The Flight WILL NOT be split up
The Flight WILL NOT be sold aboard
The Flight WILL NOT be disbanded
The Flight WILL continue to operate for as long as is physically possible.
If someone comes along with cash to inject into the flight, then this must only be a good thing.
I’m pleased to say the response to the new format of the club has been very positive, even before we have produced any serious publicity and we will be continuing to expand and develop this over the winter. We will also be shortly establishing the Classic Flight Ground Support Team, and people interested in becoming a member of this volunteer based group should contact us at [email]classic@airatlantique.co.uk[/email]
We are also currently working to have our Devon, Rapide and Prentice approved for A-B flights, which will allow us to expand our operation and offer new experiences and opportunities to fly on these classic aircraft.
All of the team at Classic Flight are determined to make sure this unique collection keeps going for many years into the future. You can help us do this by joining the club, taking a pleasure flight or by flying with us to an airshow. We have a way of supporting the aircraft for all budgets so there is no excuse!!
I hope this helps clear a few things up and reassures people. I fully understand that there is a great deal of interest in the collection and people like to know what is going on. It will never be possible for us to post all the ins and outs of the Flight, but we do try and be as open as possible.
Tom.
