ABOUT “GOOD” AND “BAD” COMPANIES IN BLACKLIST.AERO 

 

Occasionally, representatives of defaulting companies ask us a question like: “How can you help a company like...” and then the name of the company that filed a case against them. “Ask others, your claimants have a very bad reputation! But we have a good reputation and don’t want the case in BLACKLIST.AERO to cast a shadow over it!”

 

Well, this question is really worth answering publicly. My main message is very simple: for the administration of the BLACKLIST.AERO registry there are no “good” or “bad” companies. Now I’ll explain why.

 

Firstly, the BLACKLIST.AERO Registry was created in order to clear aviation of non-payments and restore confidence in the market. If we separate “good” claimants from “bad” ones according to some criteria known only to us (or even worse, by “asking the market”), then we will absolutely not restore confidence in the aviation market.

 

Any participant in the aviation market – a company or an individual – can create a case in BLACKLIST.AERO. To do this, the potential applicant needs to confirm his professional status in the aviation market. For this, when registering a case, we request a Certificate of Registration or a Business License from the company. And we ask Individuals for a professional license or certificate. After this, the claimant should sign a Claimant agreement, in which he takes full legal responsibility for the truthfulness of all the information he provides in the case.

 

Any case in BLACKLIST.AERO is a public statement by the claimant to other participants in the aviation market. Thus, he bears not only legal, but also public moral responsibility for the information he presents.

 

In the history of BLACKLIST.AERO there are many examples when former defaulters pay their debts, after which they themselves create cases against their own defaulters. And this fully reflects our understanding of justice, our basic principles.

  

For us there are no “our” or “others” companies. Any company can file a case and any company can be on the list if it does not service its debts. But there is a rule: a defaulting company can create a case in BLACKLIST.AERO against its own debtors only after they have covered thier own debt published in the Register.

 

My personal likes or dislikes for certain people or companies will never become a factor that influences our activities. I have a team behind me, albeit a small one, but a real team that also monitors my actions. And for me, the loss of their trust due to a deviation from our basic principles would be much sadder than the loss of the good attitude of any of my sympathizers.

  

You all know very well my “love” for such a character as Abdullah Al-Sayed. Especially after he unsuccessfully tried to falsify a case against me personally with the Dubai police https://blacklist.aero/news/657b021963f376687194fe70

 

However, I assure you that if the day comes when Abdullah Al-Sayed, or Rinad El-Rabaa, or Talgat Zholdybayev cover their debts published in BLACKLIST.AERO, they will have the same right to create their case in the registry as any other claimant. 

  

Another reason why we do not divide companies into “good” and “bad” is our bitter experience. People are characterized by hypocrisy, which lies in the fact that with some they behave politely or even servilely, while with others they act like pigs. We can’t know all the facets of a particular person or company. I personally have repeatedly encountered cases where a company, spending a lot of money on advertising and its own PR, does extremely disgusting things.

  

I also know of cases where people who was slung mud at, in very specific cases, showed much more nobility than their promoted “good” colleagues.

 

Therefore, the principle of publicity and accessibility of the BLACKLIST.AERO Register to every participant in the aviation market will remain unchanged for us.

Article thumbnail Yesterday, HARMONY JETS put out an official letter to their counterparties, in which they tried to at least somehow fend off my article published two weeks ago. As you remember, I flew to Malta in order to clarify the facts that shed light on why HARMONY JETS flights can be cancelled at any time. And therefore, the company developed a special scheme that allows them not give back the money paid for the flight to clients.

MERKUR – THE NEW THREE CASES DEFAULTER. IT’S TIME FOR HALIS DIN TO GO

Article thumbnail There is a certain wicked irony in the fact that a company that signed the Three Cases Declaration two years ago and committed itself to fight systemic defaulters has itself become a Three Cases Defaulter. But if the signing of this Declaration was originally an attempt to avoid the pressure of the BLACKLIST.AERO administration on its own debts, then there is nothing strange about it. As I said before participation in the Three Cases Declaration is not an indulgence from non-payments.

“ROGUE KNIGHTS” FROM HARMONY JETS IN MALTA ARE ALLOWED TO DO ANYTHING???

Only on the spot was it possible to find out who was covering them - by their active actions or deliberate non-interference. And at the same time to understand why HARMONY JETS flights are cancelled, and their aircraft remain on the ramp.
