British Airways, British International Brintel Helicopters

Hi all,
After being with British Airways Helicopters in the pilot Training Department, going through the Maxwell cock-up, the management by out, and British International phase. The CHC time and the Bond take over least that’s what it seemed as was made redundant at that time and my job taken over by a Bond chap. So left at the end of 1999, departed Aberdeen and moved to France. Had a great few years working from the ME and managing some really interesting and challenging stuff. Now retired, and enjoying every day of it.
Anyway the point of posting is to see if any of my old chums from the BA, Brintel and CHC Flight Ops Training mob up to 1999 are still around.

Many thanks.

Are you aware of the BIH/CHC reunion in November in Aberdeen?

From one who suffered at the hands of the trainers .....
