Default skyrides are at it again?

Who is "Mr. Barber"?

These guys are a scam factory that has hundreds of web sites. They were prosecuted by the state of Georgia who prevailed and the parent company are under a consent order to control how they operate. *A copy of that order is here *http://funjumper.com/skyride/gadoc.pdf. A quick look at some of their web sites shows they are likely in violation of some of the terms of that consent order. Unfortunately there are lots of tangled companies and web sites so unraveling this can be a mess, and who knows what games they are playing now with company registrations, registered company directors, web sites etc.

It is a scam, sorry that SSA folks got suckered by them. What matters now is the SSA executing fast and removing them from any involvement with the SSA.

I should also point out that the company SkySports is not a registered business in Georgia (go checkhttp://corp.sos.state.ga.us/corp/soskb/csearch.asp), I would really appreciate the SSA checking that companies they list a partners are actual legal business entities and if operating under a DBA then provide that information.

Besides scamming people out of their money, as an example of their
shady practice, I found some of my photos in their website taken
without permission. I also found a photo taken by a friend from inside
the cockpit where his legs were hidden behind the instrument panel.
They used his photo to show that handicap people can also fly...
