Peter Parrott

Hello Adam
I have just picked up this thread. I was cabin crew with BOAC/BA the day Courtline closed. My father, Peter Parrott, was Ops Manager by then, having returned from Libya where he actually ended up working for Gadaffi on Dassault Falcons. I answered the phone when he called to give us the news. It was a sad day indeed for him and he cared desperately for all those who became unemployed as a result. He flew for 35 years before his Courtline appointment. It was his last job directly in the Airline industry. He died in 2003.
I am currently trying to assemble his biography. If anyone has any anecdotes or stories about him I would be very grateful as, apart from his log books, I have very little first hand material post 1944!
