Sorry for the delay, have been drinking beer in far lovelier climes.
Word has it, from good sources, that Blackheart used his wasta with the GCAA to get the old CFI 'blackbanned' from working in the UAE in any aviation role that has dealings with the GCAA. He was in the process of finalising employment with another UAE company, but has now been canned due to non-approval from the regulatory organisation, GCAA. I hope the old CFI enjoys a different heat now!
Different sources have mentioned the interesting way Blackheart's 'qualifications' have been obtained, interestingly the same names are mentioned in both discussions....
Oh well, back to life here...
