Has anyone heard anything about this project?

The last I heard they were supposed to be flying from April, but all seems to have gone quiet?

Sorry folks I'm just interested but have realised I've left a perfect opening for all the usual jokers!!! :=(

I am friendly with the Cypriot who was given the thankless task of getting it up and running. I spoke to him last week and he admitted that it is bankrupt and will never come back.

Surely, Stillluvithere your friend was talking about two things. The new airline - which you say he is trying to help get flying, and the old one, which is deader than a parrot.

He did say that CTA was gone, he didn't mention anything about a new airline so I presumed there would not be one

If you look closely at that aircraft in the photo shown on the link, there is something completely wrong with the doors and emergency exits. I think it is a model superimposed over a landscape that certainly is not Cyprus

Well, just seen Cyprus Today so answered my own question, but how do they expect to get passengers when they haven't got a web page or method of booking a flight? I want to support them and require flights in the near future but am having to book elsewhere because I have no access to their availability.
