I can’t believe January has already pretty much shot by!The twins are already talking about half-term!!
The big news we have at this end is the imminent release of the book of our air charter exploits, Waking Sienna, which should be up on Amazon as an e-book by the end of this week at a very sensible price.
If you want to know the background and history behind Flaps International, the company behind Smarter Air Charter, the celebrities we deal with and the ups and downs (sorry about this terrible pun!) of the private aviation world, then this is the book for you. It’s a good deal more than just that though and early reviews are raving about it, frankly. We’re going to keep the price low to help spread the word about what we do and each review helps, so please let us know what you think once you’ve read it.
We’ve got a number of flight options in the air (there’s another of those awful puns – I just can’t help myself) and we’ve hit something of a company record having no less than six individual players at just one Premiership club with completely separate accounts with us. Don’t forget that these guys have quite literally a whole world of choice when it comes to choosing a supplier and since we’ve flown some of these players many times we like to think that it shows that we’re giving the right service and good value.
They say that our business is mainly word of mouth and that good news travels fast – well, there’s the proof!
Back soon with an update on the release of Waking Sienna.

In an incident that happened two weeks ago a child’s voice was heard over the airwaves directing traffic at JFK international airport in New York. The child was out of school and at work with his parent. Unwisely the parent allowed the child to direct aircraft taking off.
As the aircraft were getting ready for takeoff a child’s voice can be heard to saying “Jet Blue 171, cleared for take-off.” The pilot responded according to protocol and afterwards you can hear a pilot say “I wish I could bring my child to work”.
The FAA’s reaction was not so humorous as they have suspended the offending air traffic controller. “This behaviour is not acceptable and does not demonstrate the kind of professionalism expected from all FAA employees,” the agency said.
