Mr. Roy Corbett was the Chief writer of the courses , he passed away many years ago. RIP.

The Chief of the Office and majority owner was Mr. Peter Kelly, an old friend of mine. He passed away in June 2010. RIP.

I started work at the College on a Mon. in March, 1970 and was having lunch with him at the Gresham Hotel, opposite the Syd. Town Hall, when a Very Senior Captain from AAPNG came to see Pete, I was introduced to him, he thought for a few moments and asked me if I had applied for a job there, I said, yes. He asked if I had received a telegram from the Chief Pilot, Capt. Dick Glassey,asking me to contact him at his Syd. Hotel, I said, No.

We all had lunch and just as he was leaving, he said, well do you want it, I said, want what, he said the Bloody job. YES PLEASE. What else could say.
