Islander FUN

Probably the most unusual 'uniform' I ever flew in was in the dear old BN2.
The task was an Island destination charter of Americans who also happened to be friends of the management.
Unknown to all I 'borrowed' a 'Disney' style Mickey Mouse outfit and when the flight was called led them out to the waiting machine (you can imagine the surprise that caused with the other people waiting for their flight)
The next surprise to the charter px was when 'Mickey' not only boarded them but then climbed in the front and gave them the brief.
Needless to say 'Mickey' could not actually see properly or wear a headset so had to remove his head for the flight, but this was soon replaced after landing and the happy band was led into the 'arrivals' with a suitable Disney wave, and gasps off delight from the terminal. No doubt another first for the BN2.
IT was damm hot in that outfit though !!!
