During Telic we picked up a comp pax from AKT and had to go to Lossie before Brize.
The pax were overnighted in AKT prior to flight but the few pax who were from Lossie/Kinloss were refused permission to get off at Lossie.. The movers excuse? "not enough time to sort bags"!!
Anyway we landed at Lossie with hot brakes (capts club foot) and waited about 2 hours for the brakes to cool..
Were the Lossie/Kinloss pax allowed off by the movs?? NO
They were made to fly back to Brize, get a bus to Heathrow then another flight to Aberdeen then a bus to Lossie..
I Kid you not this actually happened...and Im sure the Movs blamed 216 sqn..
