Nigeria, Shell, 1969 - Shell, as usual, not happy, thought it would be a good idea to implement a system whereby they had Bristow and Aero Contractors on site adjacent to each other, Shell would send down a flight requirement to both operators, first one in the air got the job! Bristow told them exactly what they could do with their 'new idea' and threatened to pull their entire operation out of that site, 'new idea' dropped.
