He was a good friend an honest person to all that knew him here also.
Great person to work with, always there if you needed him.
A type of person you could depend on in good and bad times.
He will truly be missed.
Godspeed M.E.

Is it a top secret who passed away? There are many in this world that might know him.

I guess its not a top secret.
If the forums moderator has no problems with that, we can share the name.
Its in the honor and rememberance of the passed away.
Can anyone confirm if the family who came to see him are still there or have gone back?

Why don't you just post the details of the gentleman's demise on the "Where are They Now" forum? I have found that this works very well.

Its to my understanding his reamins will be transported out Of DXB on a Atlas freighter tomorrow back to the USA.
One fine Gentleman and Captain to all of us that knew him at Atlas and Midex.
Prayers for his family.

Thoughts go out to wife and family and props to the CLASS airline that pulled through in the time of need, recognized an ex employee and brought him home because it was the right thing to do.

The final flight Westbound

RIP

Even bigger question why not Midex take full responsibility for transferring him home?
This had to be severe hardship on the family.
They are not in the cargo industry?
It took his past airline to get him home?
Good on ATLAS.

I wouldn't be too hard on Midex. From the VERY limited info I have, it was an insurance issue. Midex does not go to the US. His wife called Atlas for some help and they came thru. They run regular flights for Emirates to the US.

Kudos for Atlas for coming thru.

Midex will not do anything out of goodwill. From top to bottom there is no human element in this organization. Everyone fends for themselves only....those good at being two faced get comfortable.. rest walk away.

It would be nice if people wouldn't post rumors or hear say when it concerns a fallen Crewmember. If you don't know it for fact don't say it.

Mark was put to rest this past Thursday in his hometown of Enon, Ohio.

RIP, my friend!

Topic seems dead for a while now.
Whats the latest? How is the new Vice CEO or whatever his designation is, doing?
Also how flying? still heavy flying in to Afghan and Iraq like was happening in past couple of weeks or done with those charters?
Any news on KHI/BOM, I dont think it would start??

I thought that Air France had got rid of the Orly sim. Is it still going or are they using CAE in BRU?

If I'm not mistaken the A300-B4 sim @ BRU is the only one remaining in Europe... so it would make sense...
