following on from my error about the volcano 747, what happened to European Aviation, and are any of thier jets still around/grounded.

I thought Paul Stoddard had a thriving business, I know he had a clear out of his F1 collection and sold on Minardi but assumed this was to concentrate on the airline

I think it still exists.

It is as much a plane scrappage business as a cargo airline.

But not liquidation - which seems to indicate that it hasn''t been wound up.

It's just a question of finding the right buyer.




In your case, a man with four engines and no plane!
