Racism well some small ones but never from the Icelandics.
Was on the ground in DXB flying for Nigeria Air.
Seems the Icelandic Captain was banging the Tunisan senior.
She told him to get down stairs as he was not in control here and to fly only.
This I thought was bad , very bad.
Heard her in the hotel in Lagos saying all was Ice niggers.
Back in my time trolley Dolley's did not run the company there, but was starting before my departure.
We had Olllie Smith and Rowan Good as ops ones.
We made good money, had good times and rarely any problems.
Yes if we made mistakes Rowan or Olie would call you into the office, not to fire you, but help you understand why they did things this way.
The Chief F/E and myself butted head s a few times name was George Williams I think, he was good also very well respected and experienced.
But all issues settled over a beer in the bar, or pint they call it.
How I wish all airlines could operate this way as they did then.
Sim checks was a learning time not used to fail ones,to bust a check there you had to really step on your dick to fail.
But that was long ago and now flying is all about money.
Never mind that happy crews made you a lot of money than you probably see now.
But thanks again for the good times,
