Even the mod-bod got caught up in it. Was paxing to DXB on EK. Diverted into AUH ahead of the worst of it. Then the crud from DXB arrived. The rain was going up, not down. Normal reaction from the rabble - they all wanted to climb off in AUH. Crew did a great job. Got into DXB around six hours late. Big wx.

Takes me back to days in Joburg when you're sweating it out in the sim and the thunder outside is so loud you can hear it in the sim and you get this great big smile on your dial and you think "Hey, some dudes working harder than I am!" Glad I wasn't driving that night.

Well done guys. So much hard work just taken for granted by Pete Pax who's upset he's running a little late.
