Aahh yes - Flying the GF 1011 light years ago and the standard ALD (for me anyway) was a brown cow (in the plastic cups of course). Very civilized way to finish the trip.
Let alone the beers for the crew bus and supplies for the night stop. Second home in those days was the Gulf Hotel in AUH, closely followed by the same hotel in MCT.
Times long gone but well remembered.
CDT then was not even thought of.
