....When trying for start clearance for 2 hrs in scorching sun.....get told to try again tomorrow....

.......When you can't go through the security gate to get to your hangar as no female security officer. So you have to go through the other security gate find the lady officer and walk round to the hangar....yet if it's before 8am/after 1530pm you have to go through the domestic terminal gate and be driven alllllllllll the way around airside back to the international airport...= add 2 hours prior to take-off...

......When ATC scold you for holding incorrectly as apparently 'hold' does not mean orbit...it means hover....at 500ft....

......when they won't let you back to your aircraft after watching you land, shut-down, get out, enter airport and pay landing charges etc....

......when 14 months on all you have is a pile of 3-day airport passes....

......when ATC offer chai

Always Incredible!
