Skydiving company closes for good after mum-of-four fell to her death with instructor in tandem skydive
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) THE SKYDIVING company where a mum and her instructor plunged to their deaths has announced it has ceased trading - leaving punters hundreds of pounds out of pocket. Skydive Buzz Ltd, based at Dunkeswell Airfield, near Honiton, Devon, has told customers that the firm is to be put into compulsory liquidation. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 3 Belinda Taylor was killed in a skydive jump Credit: facebook/scottarmstrong 3 Her instructor also died in the horror The company arranged a tandem parachute jump which went catastrophically wrong, leading to the deaths of Belinda Taylor, 48, and her instructor Adam Harrison, 30, on Friday, June 13. The pair died in a field after their parachutes failed to open. A British Skydiving Board of Inquiry is investigating. In recent weeks the company had stopped answering calls and customers said bookings had been cancelled. Now Skydive Buzz has sent an email to those customers informing them of its decision. The letter, sent out on Thursday, July 24, says: "It is with regret that the directors have been required to make the difficult decision to cease operations with immediate effect. "It is proposed that the company be placed into compulsory liquidation in due course. "The Official Receiver should be in contact with creditors and customers to provide an update regarding the closure of the company and the proposed liquidation proceedings." One customer said she is currently £550 out of pocket after paying for three skydives. She said: 'We have contacted the voucher company that we got them from and because it's been over two years since we bought the vouchers (because our skydives have been cancelled three times now since 2023) we won't be getting our money back apparently. "I have always found them very helpful when the sky dives have been cancelled. "They have always been very accommodating so it's very frustrating to find out that this is basically now just lost money." Another customer said: "We were due to skydive Sunday, July 6 but it was cancelled due to weather. Brit SAS hero killed in parachute crash in South Africa at skydiving contest "They sent us a link to re-book but they had nothing else available the week we were in Devon. "We emailed them twice whilst we were there but no reply. Also tried calling once home. "Then I checked the website and Facebook page and noticed it was no longer there. "Luckily we booked through Virgin who have offered vouchers or a refund so money wise we are ok." Other customers include Marie Neal who was due to jump earlier this month having raised thousands of pounds for St Luke's Hospice in memory of her dad who was struck down with Hodgkin's Disease and died aged 57. Prior to receiving the email from the company, she said: "I have a lot of people that have sponsored me and St Luke's are waiting for their money but Buzz Skydiving seems to have disappeared." In the aftermath of the tragedy Skydive Buzz announced its intention to continue. It says the closure is due to financial reasons alone. A number of jobs will be lost but the company has not said how many. In its email the company has offered some advice to those with vouchers. It says: "It is advisable to contact the voucher company in the first instance (i.e. Virgin, Red Letter Days, Into the Blue, etc) to progress potential refunds. "Customers paying by credit card may be entitled to a refund through Section 75 of the Consumer Credit Act, subject to certain conditions. "Customers paying by debit card may be able to request a chargeback through their bank, subject to certain conditions. "We would like to thank our staff, customers and all involved with Sky Dive Buzz for their support over the years and apologise again that we have been left with little other option but to close." Inquests have been opened into the tragic deaths of Belinda, who lived in Totnes, and Adam, who lived in Bournemouth, Dorset. Belinda was a participant in the tandem skydive, with Adam as her instructor. The pair exited the aircraft and began the freefall, the inquest heard. The parachute did not open as expected and they died of injuries sustained in the fall. Belinda's partner Scott Armstrong spoke of his heartbreak after she died. Scott had bought Belinda the skydive as a "thank you" present, he said, after she let his nine-year-old son move into their home. Belinda had never jumped from an aircraft before, but was described as an adrenaline junkie who would try anything once.

Exact time you should schedule interview to get the job of your dreams revealed by scientists
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) SCIENTISTS have revealed the exact time your should schedule a job interview to secure the job of your dreams. After studying over 100,000 oral exams at Italian universities, researchers identified a specific two-hour window when success rates were highest. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 1 The reasons behind this midday advantage are thought to involve biological rhythms Credit: Getty Midday, between 11am and 1pm, appears to be the ideal time for interviews, while early morning and late afternoon sessions tend to be less promising. Professor Carmelo Vicario, director of the Cognitive Neuroscience lab at the University of Messina in Sicily, said: "Students were more likely to pass in late morning compared to early morning or late afternoon. "We believe this pattern could extend to job interviews or any evaluative process scheduled throughout the day." Professor Alessio Avenanti of the University of Bologna, a co-author of the study, said: "These findings have wide-ranging implications." The reasons behind this midday advantage are thought to involve biological rhythms. Candidates may perform better during this time, while assessors - whether examiners or interviewers - could feel sharper and even more generous after meal breaks or earlier sessions. Previous studies have highlighted similar patterns, including research showing judges are more likely to deliver lenient decisions after meal breaks than later in the day. The UK job market is highly competitive, with an average of 48.7 people applying for each job, according to recruitment software firm Tribepad. Despite this, employers typically only interview around six candidates per vacancy. This makes it essential to prepare thoroughly and stand out to secure your spot and succeed in the interview. Living wage working family react to the Spring Statement How else can I boost my chances? To improve your chances of success in a UK job interview, there are several strategies to consider beyond simply timing your interview well. Fortunately, the recruitment site has shared its top tips to help you prepare. Follow along so you can smash that next interview. Do your homework First, thoroughly research the company to avoid appearing unprepared, as nearly half of hiring managers are put off by candidates who lack knowledge about the organisation. Study the company's website, recent news, mission, and values. Plus, ensure you fully understand the role by reviewing the job description and preparing to align your skills and experience with the job requirements, as failing to do so is a common reason for interview failure. Prepare and practice Preparation and practice are key to building confidence. Anticipate common questions such as "Why do you want this job?" and "Why are you leaving your current role?" Use the STAR method (Situation, Task, Action, Result) to structure your answers to competency-based questions clearly and effectively. Practising your responses will help you deliver them with clarity and confidence during the interview. Master your communication Communication plays a crucial role in making a strong impression. Your body language should convey confidence, with good posture and consistent eye contact. Actively listen to the interviewer to ensure your answers are relevant and show genuine engagement. Speak clearly and remain calm, taking a moment to think before responding if needed. Engage in two-way conversation Engaging in a two-way conversation is another way to leave a positive impression. Prepare questions about the role, team dynamics, and company culture to demonstrate your interest. Avoid asking about salary or benefits during the initial interview. Using the interviewer's name during the conversation can help build rapport and create a more personal connection. Keep it professional Professionalism is essential throughout the process. Dress appropriately in smart business attire if you are unsure of the dress code. Arriving 10-15 minutes early shows punctuality, as being late is often seen as a red flag. And be polite to everyone you encounter, from the receptionist to the interviewer, as your conduct with others can influence the overall assessment. Consider following up Finally, consider following up after the interview with a thank-you note. While this is not a guaranteed way to secure the job, a personalised thank-you email or note can tip the scales in your favour if the decision is between two strong candidates. It demonstrates professionalism and reiterates your interest in the role.

Major Scots construction firm set to plunge into liquidation
The was formed back in 2016 and worked in construction of commercial buildings GONE BUST Major Scots construction firm set to plunge into liquidation Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A MAJOR Scottish construction firm is set to go into liquidation. Pittsburgh Fife Limited, based in the coastal town of Dalgety Bay, is on the brink of collapse. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up A petition was presented at Dunfermline Sheriff Court on July 14 for the company to close up and a liquidator to be appointed, the Dunfermline Press reports. This was then submitted by the Advocate General for Scotland for and on behalf of the Commissioners for HM Revenue and Customs. Liquidation is a legal process where a company's assets are sold to pay off its debts. It also ultimately leads to the company's closure and dissolution. The process essentially consists of winding up a company's affairs. Pittsburgh Fife Limited was formed back in 2016 and worked in construction of commercial buildings. The address for the company was given as 3 St David's Business Park, Dalgety Bay. Any parties claiming an interest were asked to contact the court within eight days. It is unknown how many employees have been affected. The Dalgety Bay company is the latest construction firm to collapse. Edinburgh Cybersecurity Giant Adarma Collapses with 173 Jobs Lost In April, dozens of workers have lost their jobs after a long-established Scottish painting and decorating firm went bust.

And in May, a Scottish firm has plunged into administration after 41 years with over 20 jobs lost. Hospital Pipeline Installations Limited (HPI) in Paisley plunged into administration due to a 'marked downturn' in trade, rising operating costs and low-margin contracts.
