The crew requested a three engine ferry??? Wow there must be more crack getting into Bahrain than i first thought, those things hardly get airborne on 4 engines....
I don’t think the skipper of that flight needed any (more) crack – he is always so full of it! Till recently, he was pontificating his FOs to join EY, where he would train them on the A380! Pity GF could not get rid of him.
