January 26, 2009:

Blink, Europe's first air taxi service, has made three operational appointments as it

continues to build the finest operations team in business aviation. The hires

represent another key milestone for Blink as it takes advantage of its pioneering

market position as the first European air taxi operator. Through its unique operating

model Blink delivers the benefits of a business jet at a price competitive with

commercial airlines. The three appointments are:

· Martin Bird - Quality Manager

· Stephen Pickering - Ground Operations Manager

· Julia Tsiros - Flight Services Manager

Stephen Pickering is an important part of our Flight Services Team. He is

responsible for the safe operation of our fleet including punctuality, fleet efficiency,

and all other aspects of Blink's pan-European ground operations. Stephen joins

Blink after over 20 years with British Airways (BA) where he was the operations

manager responsible for BA's entire fleet.

As Flight Services Manager, Julia Tsiros will lead the customer services function

within the Flight Services Team. She will ensure that Blink's customers receive the

highest levels of service throughout their interaction with Blink. Julia joins Blink

after a successful career at Skyjet International where she was responsible for

managing Skyjet's extensive customer experience.

Martin Bird is responsible for Blink's quality policy which ensures that Blink is

compliant with its own and all regulatory safety and statutory requirements. He

also ensures that Blink's high standards of safety and service are guaranteed.

Martin brings exceptional civil and military experience to Blink where he will play a

crucial role in build ing its AOC.

Cameron Ogden, co-founder and managing director of Blink said:

"Operational excellence is at the heart of everything Blink does. By bringing Martin,

Stephen and Julia on board we benefit from a wide range of exceptional aviation

experience that will be critical in delivering a perfect Blink experience every time."

Peter Leiman, co-founder and managing director of Blink said:

"These are exciting times at Blink. We have just taken delivery of three more Blink

 jets and we have the grown the operations team. The new management team

additions ensure that Blink will continue to deliver unrivalled levels of customer

service and safety as we continue our rapid expansion."
