Media interest in MAN has been somewhat over zealous for many moons. I remember my father fending off a certain excitable reporter on more than one occassion when he worked for a now defunct carrier as Station Manager. These chaps still have willing cohorts employed in various positions around the airport, all happy to earn a few quid pushing stories of gallantry and ineptitude. It fills column inches in the Manchester Evening news on a quite day. At some stage in all our careers we will be the subject of the most horrendous exaggerations by morons with access to a printing press.I'm afraid it will never end.
