gmaa may well benefit short - term and long - term from the current sad tidings at sharm - el - sheikh , with increased usage of its private facilities and aviation services in the middle east .
during the 1950s a tarmac runway was built and as the airport grew so did the strict legislation controlling civil aviation tighten up , with any house or outbuilding on the main runway approach classified as potential hazards .
support extends across a number of sectors which include : private aviation , air ambulance , infrastructure monitoring , military applications and police air support all of which require bespoke solutions to what are often complex , time critical missions .
aviation beauport , one of the oldest - established fbos in europe , recently extended its purpose - built terminal in order to further improve its executive lounge and catering facilities and now boasts an additional private lounge for vips . it also provides dedicated it facilities for visiting crew following a complete revamp of the reception and booking areas . other features include extensive on - site parking and a wood panelled boardroom overlooking the apron , which can accommodate up to 12 executives for a round table discussion as well as receptions for parties of up to 30 people .
“the £10 , 000 , 000 facility agreed after an extensive competitive process cements our long standing relationship with rbs and provides gama aviation with the ability to accelerate on the delivery of our strategy of organic growth and growth by acquisition” .
when i bought the original company , it was on the understanding that greg came and ran it for me . when we started out , we had a pipe dream that one day we would see a fleet of jets littering the apron . to have made that a reality is testament to greg ' s drive , energy and enthusiasm . to many people he was ' aviation beauport ' and i , and everyone here , owe him an enormous debt .
the company , which celebrated its 40th anniversary this year , is expanding its fleet .
the acquisition comprises a consideration of £2 , 600 , 000 in cash and the issue of 1 , 000 , 000 ordinary shares , which based on gama’s closing share price on 7 january 2016 , gives a total consideration of £5 , 325 , 000 . on completion , the purchase of beauport will include fixed assets comprising property with a book value of approximately £2 , 000 , 000 and a net current asset neutral position including cash of approximately £650 , 000 . in the twelve months to 31 december 2015 , beauport is expected to achieve a turnover of approximately £6 , 000 , 000 and generate an ebitda not less than £725 , 000 . the board expects the acquisition to be earnings enhancing in the first year .
gama say that jersey’s new aircraft registry , the island ' s high density of high net worth local residents and aircraft owning businesses make the deal
a logical extension of gama aviation’s global air and ground network and represents excellent growth potential for its services
.
looking to the future – a dynamic route development programme was implemented at jersey airport in 2006 , which despite the difficult times facing the global aviation industry , has seen significant growth with the introduction of new routes and airlines , including low cost carriers including easyjet , urltoken and air berlin .
indeed igoe . i was correct in my earlier post ' s assertion that the large volumes were dryden ' s holding as per last night ' s rns - hopefully this means the overhang is cleared and gmaa can continue its long - term uptrend . perhaps we ' ll also get an rns telling us who ' s been doing the buying . more news - gmaa are certainly thinking creatively in linking up with a high - end chalet provider : urltoken m / pr - 34931 - art - de - vi urltoken ml

bell , who acquired the original air charter business in 1985 , paid tribute to the late capt graham , who was the driving force behind the growth of the company from a small air taxi service to an operation employing over 40 staff and flying a range of different jets .
bell says :
the acquisition of the mustang will give us a wider range of options as i feel there is definitely a market for businessmen doing shorter trips . the falcon , which we took delivery of in april , is already making a big contribution to our business and i would expect to see a 35 per cent uplift in turnover next year , with a further 25 per cent growth in 2011 when we factor in the contribution from our new light jet and additional work for the falcon .
he adds :
the arrival of the falcon , being a wide - bodied jet , has already opened up new markets for us and was a quantum leap forward in the range of aircraft available for charter .
last year the company handled approximately 5 , 100 aircraft movements , with passenger numbers in the region of 15 , 000 .
customer services manager dave heaney says :
pilots know that we can be relied on to pass on any messages they relay to us while passing overhead , and we ' re happy to do so , but this personal service also includes the door - to - door transport we offer , our hotel and limousine booking service and the provision of a smart car for use by visiting crew .

if you could start your own airline , what would it be like ? list name , type of airline ( cargo , low cost , etc . ) , location , destinations , and fleet . this is mine : airline name : starjet regional low - cost carrier in the us . destinations : various cities in the eastern half of the us from isp ( islip , a good substitute for new york ) and det ( detroit ) fleet : 30 canadair crj200s .
i would start one called wilsonair . ( my name , mark wilson ! ) . it would not be low cost , but it would not be expensive either , sort of in the middle . i would fly to destinations such as alicante , valencia , rome , paris , schipol etc from luton and manchester . my fleet would consist of two boeing 757 - 200 ( for the more popular flights ) five boeing 737 - 300 / 400 five md80 ' s ( second hand , to cut costs : ) )
isle of man based airline called viking global : amsterdam x2 daily jersey x2 daily gatwick x3 daily manchester x5 daily liverpool x3 daily dublin x2 daily fleet of 2 rj100s and 3 dash 8 - 300 ' s . the avro rj ' s , because nothing else has the ability to carry a useful passenger load on flights to places with high fixed costs . possibly an atr72 or a q400 but they are still too small . the regional jets are not really suitable for use out of airports with less than long runways ( ie . not really regional ! ) . if i was thinking grandiose , i would start up
virgin red
for real in the us using the a320 .
i would base my airline in either liege , brussels , oostende or antwerp so that my aircraft could carry the oo regsitration . it would operate to places in britain which lost services when sabena folded ( leeds , glasgow , edinburgh , belfast ) as belgian flights from those airports used to get busy . i would operate the avro rj and possibly the atr 72 . as for a name , i haven ' t a clue ! ! !
i would call mine , surrey skys , as i live in surrey . name : surrey skys based at lgw , using a single erj - 145 to start of with , operating the uk regional routes , to manchester , stanstead , cardiff , dublin and to edinburgh . hopefully if profits were to increase , i would eventually add to the fleet , possibly 3 737 - 300 ' s , which would then allow flights abroad to paris , rome and madrid .
30 crjs is the eventual goal , i ' d start off with a low number like 3 , from islip . islip is a good substitute for new york , about the same distance as paris to beauvais ( 80 km ) . islip is still quite underserved , and it is the nearest airport for about 2 , 000 , 000 people . yet it only has service to 11 or 12 cities .
i would start one called ' smooth ' it would be a charter airline mainly with small regional routes . to start id operate from luton and bristol fleet : 2 fokker 50 ' s good starter 3 b717 good for small travel agents regional routes would be flown by the f50 ' s and charters by the jets , and id expand from there .
i like comet ' s idea a lot . why not call it belgian airlines ? surrey skys is also nice .
mine would be called ontario air , based at my hometown airport , ont ( ontario , ca ) . its destinations would be las , sdg , sfo , oak , phx , eug , mfr , sea , pdx , dfw , ord , jfk , mia , dca , and hnl . the fleet would consist of 73g ' s and 738 ' s .
my other idea . . . . air st . lucia st . lucia ' s airline fleet : 2 atr42s 1 boeing 757 destinations : guadeloupe ( daily ) san juan ( daily ) barbados ( daily ) port of spain ( 5x weekly ) st . thomas ( daily ) aruba ( daily ) curacao ( 5 x weekly ) miami ( daily ) washington dc ( 2x weekly ) new york ( daily )
i would start a charter airline called sun spirit airways . they would operate a mixture of a319 / a320 / a321 / a330 aircraft due to cost savings etc of operating an all airbus fly - by - wire fleet . med destinations with a few long - hauls thrown in . based in bhx / ext / brs / cwl / ncl / nwi / abz .
i have already started my own airline usviva airlines im in the process of making the website it wiill be urltoken my company would be up and running in 10 years and i will be a low cost airline in the usa and i will have a mix of boeing airbus and bombardier aircraft at firs probably 1 plane a boeing 727 maybe 2 ad i will continue to get boeing 727 ' s until i make profit i will fly to washington d . c new york la guardier orlando sanford los angeles san francisco charlote chicago atlanta seatle bahamas and houston to start off with i might wen i go national get a long range plane and go to london gatwick bristol manchester paris rome madrid palma mallorca and in asia hong kong and shanghai
you dont want too much then eal king , what it must be like to have a vivid imagination . . . .
i ' d love to set up a scottish national airline . probably named something like tartan air ( although still tempted by air scotia ! ) tartan air would have it ' s main base in glasgow and a second base in edinburgh . it would use turbo props ( probably atr 42 / 72 ) to operate into gla and edi from airports around scotland ( abz / dnd / inv / wic / syy / koi / lsi ) at least double daily . it would operate on the basis of low ( er ) cost but not no - frills . i would like to see tartan air operate a two class cabin using airbus a320 family aircraft and serve the following domestic / european routes . business class seats would number no more than 15 . gla - cdg / fra / ams / dub / mad / rom / mil / ath / prg / lon / bru / muc / vie / gva edi - cdg / fra / ams / dub / mil / prg / lon / bru / muc / gva / osl / cph / sto abz & dnd - lon / bhx / man / ams / cdg ahhhh - but it is all a pipedream ! if ever i felt i had too many millions of pounds to dispose of in a hurry . . . . . . . . . . .
have you heard the saying . . .
friends don ' t let friends start airlines .
mine would be . skycruiser cargo . i have always wanted to fly cargo , i think they have some of the best destinations you can imagine . would be specializing in cargo to all parts of the world .
and cargo doesn ' t get drunk , have heart attacks , etc . etc .
i would like to operate a summer only operation called something like ' colonial ' from somewhere like biggin hill or blackbushe operating at civilised daytime hours dc 3 ' s to exeter then on to plymouth , jersey then onto guernsey , and daytrips to varying destinations in nearby france . for the daytrips i would heavily rely on pushing companies for corporate days out , etc .
cyprioteagle , that was pretty interesting to read . i am quite interested in getting into the position you are in when i am older so reading that was rather insightful . i believe that there would be problems with foreign ownership as well if you wanted to set up a carrier in the us . the eu would like to loosen ownership and control regulations also in this open skies deal with the us , however , at the moment an airline like virgin could not start up a carrier as it is forbidden for outside an investor such as an airline , to control or set up another airline over there . quite an oddity considering an airline like qantas could help partner american out by investing in them . currently they could only take a 25 % voting share in the airline though probably raising this would help as with the state of the airline industry it could spur on recovery .
gwb is protectionist , so i don ' t think the foreign ownership ban will be lifted any time soon .
but raising the stakes from 25 % to 49 % is possible without changing the current ownership laws to help recovery . i think bush ' s administration is in agreement with that .
originally posted by mongu then , your pilots will demand pay rises every week : ) . . . in order to edge their salaries closer to those of the accountants ; )
yes , i am aware of the bermuda ii deal about who can and can ' t operate from lhr and who has to go to lgw or stn plus the destinations that can / can ' t be served from lhr . . . . rediculous .
cypriot aetos , i just read that loooong post , and i ' m very impressed ! i actually briefly knew a cypriot living in the l . a . area that was studying airport management at cal st . l . a . so you ' re basically telling me that a ' snot - nosed ' 15 year old kid has no business even thinking about starting an airline ( i ' m 29 , by the way ) , rubbish ! ! ; )
greekdude actually it meant to give him a couple of short advices but it ended up like that ! : ppp i know he must like a lot airlines ; therefore it meant to give him a taste of the
real world
! : p anyway , i was just carried away , who doesnt when starts talking about airlines . . . but buying b727 ' s in 10 years time this was classic ! thank god he didnt ask for tridents . . emm the chinese have some available at a museum . . : p . btw im studyign air transport management that deals with all the aspects of the airline industry , not just airports ! : )
oh , ok , sorry about that ! that ' s gotta ' be a great thing to major in ! i would actually even study . how far is cranfield from london ?
i ' m at that stage in my career where i want to try something else , so an air transport masters looks appealing . what are the entry requirements - i have a ba in business studies and will shortly be a chartered certified accountant . do you need experience in the airline / travel industry to be accepted ? also - cranfield has a management school too , teaching mba ' s doesn ' t it ? my other option is to go for an msc in financial regulation , or the institute of directors ' chartered director qualification . neither has quite the same appeal , if you know what i mean ! saab - it would be a brave investor who was happy with 49 % control . i know sia did it with virgin , but in general if i was an airline cfo or ceo , i wouldn ' t like it .
there is your problem with foreign ownership then . no airline in their right mind would be interested in touching a troubled alliance partner with a bargepole . having said that , qantas were interested in american while prices were low though i doubt ba or lufthansa would be so forward in helping out .
governments around the world seem to regard airlines as being immune to market forces . i can ' t think of any other business where all these draconian and restirctive regulations exist , apart from defence work . the irony is that the airlines need to consolidate . the only big market where this is possible is europe - a ban on
foreign
ownership would be illegal within the eu ( foreign = another country within the eu ) so there will certainly be consolidation in europe . the rest of the world needs to follow .
i 100 % agree . too much emphasis is placed on airlines as a national icon , it is an outdated system and frankly airlines should be a business not part of a countries vital infrastructure . governments bailing airlines out in crisis ( would this of happened in any other industry ? ) and agreements that protect an airlines identity plus market are all rooted in a different era . it is survival of the fittest today and with concepts such as open skies plus foreign ownership it is time airlines and governments woke up to the fact that to survive national identity cannot be a stumbling block and consolidation must occur . though within the eu does competition regulations not come into play ?
another idea : uk airways london city to birmingham 1x daily manchester 2x daily leeds 1x daily newcastle 1xdaily amsterdam 6x daily fleet : 2 dash 8 100s it would be primarily targeting buisness travelers , with low fares and some frills . seating pitch higher than most airlines , only 30 seats on the planes .
the first aeroplane to land in jersey touched down on the beach at west park , on the island’s south coast in august 1912 . however , it was to be another 25 years before jersey had an airport on dry land !
recognising the growing importance and popularity of air travel , the jersey chamber of commerce pushed for a purpose - built airport and , in 1934 , the states of jersey agreed to the purchase of a privately - owned field in st peter , towards the west of the island .
the new jersey airport was officially opened on 10 march 1937 at a total cost of £127 , 000 . the project used a total of 97 acres , with a 980 - yard grass runway .
at the time , jersey airport boasted two hangars and the terminal building itself included a central tower and two side buildings for arrivals and departures , with a restaurant and terraces on the second floor .
within a year of opening , an estimated 20 , 000 visitors had flown to jersey , many of them holidaying from mainland uk .
as well as travel opportunities , islanders also enjoyed daily deliveries of mail and national newspapers , speedy access to markets for growers and an improved air - sea rescue service , co - ordinated by air traffic control . jersey airport was up and running and much appreciated by the local community .
march 1940 saw an easter rush of visitors from the uk , which turned out to be their last visit to the channel islands for some time . in june 1940 commercial operations into the channel islands were suspended and for days the airport was run as a staging post for many of the aircraft getting out of france . in just three days , 400 passengers were evacuated by air before it was revealed that evacuation by boat would be possible . enemy forces touched down in jersey in july 1940 to begin five long years of german occupation during world war two .
however , following the liberation of the island on 9 may 1945 , jersey airport came to life again .
in the years immediately following the end of the war the number of passengers flying to and from jersey dramatically increased and reached 113 , 333 in 1947 . as a result , money was spent on new telecommunication aids , a new hangar and a longer runway .
jersey’s position as a holiday island , close to france but english speaking , with duty - free goods and carefully graded hotels and guesthouses – made it a tourist paradise . in 1955 over 383 , 000 passengers used jersey airport , revealing for the first time that air travel had become more popular than sea as a means of getting to the island .
this era also saw the construction of a new road from jersey airport to beaumont – known commonly as the airport approach road . by the end of the 1950s it was revealed that jersey airport contributed more than £5 million a year to the island’s economy .
air arrivals continued to increase during the 1960s with visitors now arriving from further afield . freight services were also improved , with jersey cattle flown out of the island to establish new herds overseas and produce , including flowers , sent direct to market in huge quantities .
jersey airport continued to develop and expand throughout the decade and following an extension of the runway , by 1965 jets were now able to land .
the jersey aero club continued to prosper and by 1964 more than 40 local pilots had obtained their licences .
two new wings were built onto the existing administration block in 1968 , providing amongst other facilities , a new 175 - seater restaurant and bar .
by the 1970s , jersey airport had become the sixth busiest airport in europe ! the look of the airport was also changing with new building work , including the opening of a new air traffic control radar room and control tower as well as a meteorological station . passengers also had access to a shop on the ground floor .
by early 1976 and following a £1m safety plan presented to the states of jersey , the airport had a 6 , 000ft runway with a 500ft safety area at the western area . the number of passengers using jersey airport in august 1975 was 104 , 085 . in 1978 a mini - price war raged with cut - price fares encouraging people to come to jersey . improvements continued with plans to build a new passenger pier .
in the 1980s the problem of jet aircraft was tempered by new developments in aircraft technology meaning jet aircraft nowadays did not need to be noisy .
on 21 december 1988 the lockerbie disaster brought the issue of airport security to the fore .
plans to build an up - to - date and larger airport to accommodate the increasingly growing number of arriving passengers , continued to dominate the 1990s . in 1994 figures revealed that between £15m and £17m was needed to redevelop the airport site . the requirement for new security measurements following the lockerbie disaster as well as passengers having to wait in a large marquee erected outside the building when planes were delayed by fog supported the argument for new enlarged facilities .
a modern extension to complement the original 1937 main building was opened in 1997 , providing more space and better facilities for departing passengers . amongst the airlines that made use of the new facilities was british airways , who have long been associated with flights to and from the island .
in the 90s , as well as serving both gatwick and heathrow , ba was able to offer passengers direct flights to other uk cities as well as introducing a jersey to paris service in 1994 . air uk was flying to the south coast as well as to other airports further north , while jersey european ( later to become flybe ) were offering direct flights between jersey and ireland .
since 2007 a major programme of capital works has also been undertaken , including the resurfacing and re - profiling of the airport’s runway ( 2008 / 2009 ) . a major redevelopment of the airside departures lounge was completed during the summer 2009 , enhancing the passenger journey experience whilst at the same time offering a more positive lasting impression of the island for departing passengers .
march 2012 saw the successful completion of an integration programme between jersey airport and jersey harbours , to be commonly known as ports of jersey . led by a group chief executive , integration has allowed the combined organisation to reinvigorate and refocus itself , delivering synergies , efficiencies and best practices across every department .
a business case for the incorporation of ports of jersey was passed by the states of jersey ( local government ) in spring 2015 , and came into effect on thursday 01 october 2015 .

comments about the acquisition here from the cmo - sounds like more acquisitions are on the way : https : / / www . flightgl urltoken es / gama - expands - euro pean - portfolio - with - jerseys - aviati - 42073 0 /
latest forecasts from cantors are . 2016 27 . 86p eps , 2 . 8p divi . they were before the acquisition as well .
adam , i ` d imagine rivaldo using cantors figures , which is the latest update .
rivaldo i sold out of these at the time of the merger with hangar8 but have kept them on the watch list . how do yo arrive at a single digit 2016 pe ? the estimates which i see are just above 23p thanks adam
i don ` t blame you for topping up , rivaldo . this is very much under the radar , with falling fuel prices and expanding etc . pardon the cliché , these will fly . reading between the lines they may well could be lining up something else , as well . gama has also agreed a £10m credit line from its principal bankers , rbs which will be used to both fund the cash consideration of the acquisition and provide further expansion capital
excellent earnings - enhancing acquisition today . i ' ve been buying a few more here . latest forecasts from cantors , who have a 400p target , are now out - they show : last year ( 2015 ) : 22 . 56p eps , 2 . 3p divi this year ( 2016 ) : 27 . 86p eps , 2 . 8p divi i ' d imagine those forecasts will now be lifted for today ' s acquisition . assuming the year end trading statement is in line at worst - and the interims outlook was very confident - then there ' s scope for a 50 % + uplift from here imo , and possibly a lot more .
i ` m expecting a big improvement over the next 12 months regarding gmaa s / p . business picking up in all areas a cheap fuel price , surely £4 has to be a 12 month target .
rivaldo - with all due to respect to my high opinion of your board contributions here and elsewhere i think your last comment is delusional . sharm is a mass package holiday destination . rich people who can afford private jets can also afford to holiday somewhere safer ( perceived ) .
you would think this should be going up not down with the falling prices at the pumps . should be a massive saving on costs for airlines . small sells and no buys are depressing the price at the moment .
