I've seen live streams from their studio fairly recently.

Got Flight Fm from Watford M25 all the way around to Gatwick Airport Thursday night, which is quite a good range for them.

Really surprised they have returned, been months did think it was finally over, but we all know Flight love a break for a few months. Hopfully stay on now, but three station sharing a dial isn't going to last long. Still surprised they gave up 101.7, even with Asian Star in Slough bumping their London signal.

Flights problem is they off too long and seem to pick really strange dials also and have dramas with too many people it used to be a really good ukg station on 1015 at one point

The management of Flight have certainly had there history with a few London station, and will defender themselves or attack....

From what I've heard it's quite the reverse! They seem to be targets for rig thieves I don't know them or who owns it anymore I know it was a girl before who owned a dj agency but they been terrorised from what I've heard so I'm not sure that statement is accurate on the old radionecks it was common knowledge that they was being targeted by thieves and done nothing

7 months off air..... but they will defend/attack? Seems like they don’t like the fact another station started broadcasting on there.. way to much negativity with in the radio world.... :lol:

Again mate zero knowledge of what your talking about.

A woman who run Flight? Where on Earth did you hear that or get than info? Flight has been run by two guy since its start, which much help from other strong heads in their camp, so again showing your total ignorance.

In recent Years, yes they have been a target rigs thives (and who hasn't, look at Origin in recent Years) But my point was about Flight since they started, they have always defender their dial to anyone who has tried to target them. This goes back to the late 1990s early 2000s. With out going into fine detail, I am sure people here have had to deal with Flights management, and know originally they were fully backed by some nasty people.

I think if you knew stories of Flight you would know they wouldn't sit back and do nothing.
