Anyone needing clarification on the working and living conditions in QATAR might like to contact the Chief Pilot of
Virgin Blue. From memory, J.R. spent some time there, before moving on to (literally) greener pastures.
My fondest memories of QATAR were those of looking down at it from 33,000', and the recollection of those words "
Water, water everywhere - but not a drop to drink", that must have been penned following a l o n g trek across miles of white, shimmering sand!
To my mind, there seems to be something very biblical in this trilogy of unfolding events.
