Tom would it make you happy if Seminole was shut down, Rich Owen and others were unemployed and destitute, the buildings were falling down with the runway grown up in weeds?
Then when the people of Romania finally reclaim “their” swproperty, it is worth less than a vibrant faculty with a dedicated staff and established customer base? That seems to be what you are advocating... I’ve never been there and never met Rich, but I doubt he was looking to be in the middle of an international situation, and is just trying to do the best he can while the courts sort this out. |

While Mihai might not be the most savory character I have ever known he is nonetheless the owner of record of SLGP. He existed and lived under his own name and no one was aiding and abetting him in any way, shape or form. The facility is open for business and when and if the people of Romania take ownership they can be proud of how well it has been maintained and run.
Now let's discuss something of greater importance. Who else thinks wrestling is phony? Walt |

What’s wrong with giving other soaring sites in the area business? Sounds like most people are doing that with Treasure Coast Soaring already..
A gliderport with offshore bank accounts! I find it very telling that Rich Owen refuses to address the core issues, other than pleading the 5th! Rich, just go work for another gliderport before you end up in jail. RICO Racketeering Influenced Corrupt Organizaton https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rack...anizations_Act |

What a judgmental lot of Hens. Is the view good up there on your high horse? Could be, it is none of your business? Take care of your own house, and keep liable per se of RAS. And as far as a thief from Romania, where the hell do you think gypsies come from. US has a long tradition of being a place where foreign government officials come with billions or hundreds of millions and stay. China, Russian, Ukrainian...
How about we stick to subject of Soaring and not someone's business. How does this affect or effect you? I don't know Rich but he is a career Naval officer who I am sure can manage his affairs properly.

There is nothing particularly wrong with an offshore bank account. It's pretty common. Google it. |

asw20,
You are in the same category than 2G. I am one of the many celebrities that fly at Seminole, enjoy the luxurious life style there, and pay from my many offshore bank accounts. Horst |

I’ve never been there and never met Rich, but I doubt he was looking to be in the middle of an international situation, and is just trying to do the best he can while the courts sort this out. Let's be clear he I am not ADVOCATING ANYTHING! I have no dog in the fight either way. What I read was a seeming denial by Rich Owen that anything untoward, let alone illegal, chain of events had occurred. A very simple internet search showed the truth to be exactly the opposite. Maybe Rich is very naive, so I felt it appropriate to put the facts out there and let the chips fall where they may. Rich could very well be in serious legal trouble, but that is not for me to say. If I were him I would hire a criminal attorney and find out. What the rightful owners of Seminole-Lake a/p do is entirely up to them, not me. I have ALREADY stated that it is in their best interests to keep operating it; did you not read that? Some people on RAS want to put their heads into the sand and pretend that things are not as they are. But one thing is very clear: Tanjala is a VERY BAD character, and I would have ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with him. Tom |

Tom,
Your comments here show an ignorance of some pretty fundamental business principals. Seminole Lake is almost surely worth more as a going concern than as a piece of property. By keeping the business going, Rich is maintaining the value of the asset. As this works it’s way through the courts at some point a sale of the business will likely occur returning the value to Romania. I would suggest your posts are highly counter productive to achieving the result you appear to be looking for. 2C |

In particular I wrote: "It is in the best interests of Tanjala's victims to keep operating the facility - and generating revenue - while they are looking for a new buyer." The victims would likely want Rich to continue operating the facility, but I can't - and won't - speak for them. I just want the truth to be known. Whining, bellyaching and bitching won't change the truth - it speaks for itself. Tom |
