A few years back, post 9/11, Uffers junior worked for Thomas Cook. On a work experience trip back from Tahiti via JFK, one of the group of Asian appearance, got up and changed seats while taxiing out to bag the four across in economy to have a sleep. Unfortunately some American passenger thought this was suspicious and complained. As a result the aircraft returned to the gate, and despite the fact that he was a travel agent, on a travel agents works outing, was off loaded. Uffers Jnr and others of the group tried to intervene, but the Virgin captain was adamant that he be removed.
His name was Singh!!!!
