A little perspective on the above post about AB kicking OLOG's arse. Back in the late 70's Bristow bought Offshore Helicopters and moved into the GOM. I remember my old buddy from Abu Dhabi, Don Stoneking, telling me how Bristow was going to revolutionize the gulf. It was maybe a year later, but Bristow packed their bags and went back to the UK. And in the end, for better or worse, it was OLOG that bought Bristow, not the other way around.
