1985 blast from the past! YBBN and the mad Yugoslav

Oh dear, have we all forgotten 1985 and the mad Yugoslav at the old Brisvegas airport? Hell, this incident would be well remembered by the Townsville and Brisbane refuellers! A refuellers worst nightmare of somebody pinching his shiny tanker and holding the world to ransom! How dare he do that? The madman could have found the supply of Vodka minis and Hustlers behind the cabin seat!
Besides only fuel companies retain that privilege of holding others to ransom

The loony commandeered a tanker and a whirlybird that day (jeez, that could have been your chopper Dick?). I was on shift that day and recall taking up a prime viewing spot from one of the freight sheds, later taking a spot upstairs in the nice dark cosy bar and scoffing a few ales with some of the boys before being booted out of the terminal by the sheriffs!

Good times, great days Would an ASIC have prevented the shenanigans that day? Doubt it.
