I also know your Dad, probably since around 1974. I think he worked in the old Hangar 5 when we were doing the S-58T conversions. I also remember him in Logistics but I left Bristow in 1996 and I have lived overseas since 1993.
I don't get back the UK but I do keep in touch with the BOGS who seem to have their lunches in Outwood.
Anyway, I am sorry to hear about your redundancy. You and your Dad can look back on your Bristow days as being the best, it was never the same after the Americans bought into it.
While I am no longer in it, I see it as just a US corporation with no soul, notwithstanding the valiant efforts of those old hands remaining.
