Right.... so far the whole Air Taxi business has been clearly shown to be a big bubble, planes have been delivered, but companies go bust one after another.

hello,

PH-ORJ Ce510 is/was based at EHAM, most of the time parked inside Hangaar 3 or 4
PH-TXI Ce510 at EHRD, parked inside Jetnetherlands hangaar.

I think they will stay there untill an new owner/operator is found.

Mr. Kortenhorst is certainly not going to give up

Gents, this is still an English-only area. The purpose of that is to enable non-Dutch readers to follow what is going on. Unfortunately, this does not work with links to (or quotes from) sites solely in Dutch - especially not when one has to be a member to read it all (many people are not!).
So, here is the usual request: please give at least a short summary in English of the news you are sharing.

Thanks,
Erik

I think Mr Kortenhorst is not a real aviation entrepreneur, but someone who wants to get rich quickly. Too much blabla and too many friends in politics (I recall a video of Minister Eurlings promoting Sky Taxi) .... Sky Taxi did not deliver the money he hoped for, so he lets the company go bankrupt. The ink of the bankrupcy filing has not fully dried up and he is already starting the same company again. A small prediction on my part: this will not last long.

Just my two cents.

Brgds, Peter

PH-TXI became G-OAMB in Aug09 and is now flying from Cambridge.
