....a true gentleman, typical of all ex-Laker men !
Generally true, the ex-Laker folks are top-notch.
Especially the guy I'm working with now on a new scheduled/ad-hoc charter airline, the ex- Director of Marketing, the number two guy in the 'ole Laker organisation.
Seems to know just about
everyone in the charter business, many pilots included.
Sir Freddie developed a loyal following, and his door was always open, to everyone.
Quite unlike many airline managements now.
Sudden thought...I wonder what EK would be like now if Sir Freddie had run the show from the beginning?
