SASless,

I hear Fred is not living in VI, but in a quite modest flat in Ikeja somewhere.

Caverton have been very quiet recently and I haven't seen their 109 for over a week now. I did hear a rumour that they're close to signing a lease deal with Heliportugal for a Dauphin, presumably for the shuttle to VI. There still seems to be some construction work underway at their heliport site, though it looks a long way from completion yet.

Any news from Cameroon as to whether Schreiner/CHC are likely to renew their contract with Exxon for support of the pipeline/FSO operation? I hear that a lot of their pilots are spending part of their leave time in Sudan because CHC are having problems finding crew to go there (not helped by the fact that the Schreiner Libya operation is involved in this!).

I'm a bit busy at the moment. Let's hear more from African PPRuNers as to what happened in Escravos, the continuing exodus from ACN and Bristow, what's happening to the FW division of ACN.
