I found this quite interesting:

As some comments said, could make a good reality series.

The part where he sneakily got the Egyptian charter jet in the UK made me chuckle.

All in all, a good read indeed :)

Very interesting read. I bet those guys have some stories about the one that nearly got away.

I think a reality TV series would be great.

If memory serves me correctly, Compass (Mk1 or Mk2, cant remember now) had a couple of Aircraft repossesed (but not immediately flown out) minutes before passengers were due to board. The passengers never did get to board either, as by next morning Compass had ceased to operate.

Viva Macau 2 767s are now parked in Guam, obvious the lessor has possession and wants them in a safe place
