Notes to the financial statements |
|
Year ended 31 January 2026
1.
General information
The company is a private company limited by shares, registered in England and Wales. The address of the registered office is Building 425 Duxford Airfield, Duxford, Cambridge, CB22 4QR.
2.
Statement of compliance
These financial statements have been prepared in compliance with Section 1A of FRS 102, 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland'.
3.
Accounting policies
Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, as modified by the revaluation of aircraft measured at fair value through profit or loss. The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the entity.
Going concern
The company incurred a loss of £181,157 during the year and had net liabilities of £195,110 at 31 January 2026. A substantial proportion of the company's liabilities is due to a group company, which has confirmed that repayment will not be sought where this would adversely affect the company's ability to continue trading.
Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty
Estimates and judgements used in preparing the financial statements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The resulting accounting estimates will, by definition seldom equal the related actual results. Any subsequent changes are accounted for with an effect on income at the time such updated information is available. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant effect on the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities are discussed below: - Aircraft - In applying the Company's accounting policies for aircraft carried at fair value, consideration was given to the valuation of the aircraft at the reporting date. Further detail of the estimate has been included in the tangible assets note.
Revenue recognition
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and represents amounts receivable for services rendered, stated net of discounts and of Value Added Tax. Revenue from the sale of services is recognised when the service has been satisfactorily provided, the amount can be measured reliably, it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the entity and the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably.
Income tax
The taxation expense represents the aggregate amount of current and deferred tax recognised in the reporting period. Tax is recognised in profit or loss, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. In this case, tax is recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity, respectively. Current tax is recognised on taxable profit for the current and past periods. Current tax is measured at the amounts of tax expected to pay or recover using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences at the reporting date. Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits. Deferred tax is measured using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference.
Tangible assets
Tangible fixed assets are initially recorded at cost. Aircraft are carried at revalued amounts, being fair value at the date of revaluation less any subsequent accumulated impairment losses. The aircraft are not depreciated, as the directors consider that the residual value of the aircraft is not materially different from its carrying amount and that the useful economic life cannot be reliably determined. This treatment is reviewed annually to ensure it remains appropriate. Revaluation gains are recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity under the revaluation reserve, except to the extent they reverse a revaluation decrease of the same asset previously recognised in profit or loss. Revaluation losses are recognised in other comprehensive income to the extent of any previously recognised revaluation gains accumulated in equity for that asset. Any excess revaluation loss beyond the revaluation reserve is recognised in profit or loss. The company reviews the carrying values of tangible assets periodically to ensure they reflect current fair values and assesses for indicators of impairment at each reporting date.
Provisions
Provisions are recognised when the entity has an obligation at the reporting date as a result of a past event, it is probable that the entity will be required to transfer economic benefits in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be estimated reliably. Provisions are recognised as a liability in the statement of financial position and the amount of the provision as an expense. Provisions are initially measured at the best estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation at the reporting date and subsequently reviewed at each reporting date and adjusted to reflect the current best estimate of the amount that would be required to settle the obligation. Any adjustments to the amounts previously recognised are recognised in profit or loss unless the provision was originally recognised as part of the cost of an asset. When a provision is measured at the present value of the amount expected to be required to settle the obligation, the unwinding of the discount is recognised as a finance cost in profit or loss in the period it arises.
Financial instruments
A financial asset or a financial liability is recognised only when the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. Debtors and creditors with no stated interest rate and receivable or payable within one year are recorded at transaction price. Any losses arising from impairment are recognised in the profit and loss account in other administrative expenses. Assets not measured at fair value are reviewed for any indication that the asset may be impaired at each balance sheet date. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset, or the asset's cash generating unit, is estimated and compared to the carrying amount. Where the carrying amount exceeds its recoverable amount, an impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss unless the asset is carried at a revalued amount where the impairment loss is a revaluation decrease.

Prior period errors
Trade creditors and trade debtors reported in the comparative period were overstated due to amounts owed to and by group undertakings not being reclassified. A restatement has been made to reflect these. The tables below show the impact of this adjustment to trade debtors, trade creditors and amounts owed to group undertakings.
