In the CAA’s eyes Illegal Public Transport is the number one offence very closely followed by forged documentation. There will be a lot more to this case than we are aware of.
I doubt there will be any appeal this time. Following the last offence at Coventry he appealed and lost. The following is copied from the nickwilcock post above:
“ Judge Berlin said the fines imposed by the magistrates should remain – but increased the costs Harbottle has to pay from £4,500 to £19,689 to cover the cost to the CAA of the appeal.”
Imagine the extra costs on a £175,000 fine if he was to lose the appeal...
