The sad demise of our colleague was a result of a car crash on new years eve. The airline arranged for his family to come to the Gulf and made all the arrangements for the Captains body to be flown back home for burial. I fail to see your point in using this sad occurance to knock the airline. After many years of working for GF I can say that one of the major good points of this airline is the level of compassion it shows towards it's employees at times of need.
