It's not just helicopters, you know!

I was just sorting through some old stuff back here in Germany after a spell in the States finally finishing my BA. I found a nice color photo of me as a Dornier 328 Captain, looking very, very pleased with myself.

But wait ... there's something odd about the picture: Flugkapitän G. Burmeister had Photoshopped 5-bar epaulettes into the image, the cheeky fellow!

If I get around to that, I will take a digital shot of it and stick it up here, just to show that we did operate fixed-wing in Nigeria: Dornier 328s, Beech King Airs, an MU-2, some DHC-6 Twotters ... and sometime back in the early 80s I had an air-miss with a Bristow Islander, when I could see that the Bristow pilot was wearing a tie, but I forgot to take a picture of that.
