Because it will influence the outcome of the dispute between City & Nantes. Who asked McKay, who was he working on behalf of? Remember City offered him a commercial flight which he or someone on his behalf declined. For the transfer fee I believe it’s the crux of the whole case.
I think the key thing is, we know the McKay’s asked Henderson to organise the flight, but did they know he operated in such a dodgy way and also did they know he was using Ibbertson.
Then that link needs to be made between McKay and Nantes.
Long way to go yet, but 2 things stand out for me.
1. City were right to want to find out what happened before paying. They seem to be victims in this too
2. A poor lad has died here, due to someone taking insane chances for a quick buck. It’s horrendous. Not forgetting the pilot, although it’s looking like he was partly to blame himself.
Everything is useful information. What if they were using them because they know they are cheap, and know WHY they are cheap. What if there are some other corners being cut.
People who deal with whoever sorted the flight in future have the right to know if they were completely in the dark about the illegality of the flight, or whether they knew and didn't care.
