Wasn't it G-BIEJ being flown single pilot
All of our contracts up to then were flown single pilot. I have a feeling that that flight was a 2 pilot contract but they hadn't told Ops or the crews.. However, after that it was all 2 pilot which was a bit of a bore as the LHS was essential for putting your meal tray and duty free on.

Bristow had just had one of their pilot's redundancy schemes and were short of 332 pilots so I was converted to help out. I then refreshed on the 330 to help them out so I was flying three types for a couple of months. I got fed up with doing so many V/IMC base checks that I threw in the 76.
