are there areas of aviation management he could go into? Perhaps some consultancy work which would pay well? Seems a shame that he has so much expertise to offer for him to move away from the industry.
I remember you saying you were thinking of moving abroad which would save huge amounts of tax (don't blame you - it was an eye watering sum!!) - would this be even more of a possibility now if you moved with a lump sum?

I'm wondering whether to go back out for a paper. I popped into a newsagent earlier and they had sold out and were waiting for more supplies!!! It is jobs day, I wonder if that's a sign of the times or just a blip in the numbers he sold today.
I am sorely tempted to buy a bottle of cheap plonk as well.........
aahh, stuff it, I'll go and get a paper, perhaps amongst the same part time OTE only telesales jobs and the minimum wage care assistant jobs that are in there every week there may be something for me.........but the jobs section has been very, very skinny since I started looking....."Stay Wonky":D
