BKK:
No mate. but I was working in Crewing when that one happened. Capt AlKhadra...I took the call from him.
No, this was the one that diverted to Calcutta, spent three hours on the ground there, eventually went to DAC and we sat on the aircraft for about 6 hours then they told us to go to the hotel for 12 hours....just as we were about to disembark, the Station Manager came running across the apron telling us that we "have to stay on board and take the aircraft back to DOH...cos they need it...." "special dispensation from DCAM..."
The crewing decision on that one was overruled...quel surprise!
Cheers
