Torres, I dont know about the lighter fluid thing (wouldnt surprise me about this supposed individual) but I can tell you for a fact that there is supposedly a pilot in Australia working for a rather large carrier with part of an ear missing as a result so they say.
Another pilot apparently is doing the rounds of aviation in northern OZ and owes alot of money to alot of people and has left more than a few hotels with staggering bills.
Wonder who that may be??
After it was all said and done we all enjoyed Douglas and apart from a scrape or two mentioned had a good time and enjoyed the camaraderie.
Almost forgot the chief pilot who was presented a pillow case with two eye-holes cut out for his birthday!
Lets not go there!!
