It was Capt Dr con who took over from Capt Kamel, His appointment was a compromise. The first non aviator to run a flight operations.
Yes he drank a bit and did not get along with Tak-Judi-een, so was sidelined. He got back at Tak-Judi-een by filing a police report for mis-management of the cargo at outfit at Hans airport in Germany.. Nothing came out of it. Buried underneath the BN thrash.
