Folks,
Anybody remember a Sydney based very well known jockey called Neville Sellwood, years ago??
A company, where I worked at the time, has a deal with his stable to fly people around, particularly to and from the Hunter Valley. and ASSY/ASBK.
He was a nightmare passenger, continually demanding that pilots be fired for incompetence, usually because they "turned too much".
Trying to find a "new pilot" every time he turned up (ie: somebody he didn't recognise or remember ) was a huge problem, pilots with a "twin" endorsement were very thin on the ground.
If he spotted a previous "incompetent" --- he would demand to know why they were still on the premises, as they must have been fired for incompetence, as directed.
Complaints were frequently directed to DCA regional office, the calls from Balls Head usually started with " Sellwood's complaining again --- you haven't been turning, have you------??"
In the end, the only answer was to drop the contract and shove the problem off on some other poor unsuspecting sod.
Tootle pip!!
