Another story about East West:

In those days - well before ASIC, the various companies issued there own ID's to staff. They would take a Passport photo and laminate it into a credit card sized ID with the company logo.

A particular F28 Captain in Sydney took his home and took a photo of his Dog with Sunglasses, Company Hat and Headset over the lot. He then put this inside the laminated ID and used it for about 3 years before he was finally pick up on it. I heard that he got the full treatment from the "Smiling Assassin" (berated for an hour, nothing more).

Times where different then!!!
