Awful: The Aviation Herald Founder Forced To Sell Home After Slovakian Airline Lawsuit
The founder of The Aviation Herald was forced to sell his home after a lawsuit by Slovakian airline Go2Sky over a safety report.Summary
The Aviation Herald founder Simon Hradecky has been forced to sell his apartment and move into his office after a costly legal battle with Slovakian airline Go2Sky. The dispute began in July 2025 when the site reported a Go2Sky flight had an engine issue, which was later corrected to a stab trim problem. Go2Sky sued for defamation and demanded a preliminary injunction, while also attempting to force the removal of an accurate 2016 report. The legal costs were not covered by insurance, forcing Hradecky to sell the apartment he had lived in for 41 years. The author of the article finds the lawsuit bizarre, noting that the airline confirmed the stab trim issue and admitted no damage occurred, while the demand to remove a decade-old, verified report seems like an attempt to hide past incidents.
