Chileno 777-Take a hike and I mean that in the best possible way.
Stop making an a*s*hole of your self.
Justin was one of the finest pilots I have ever known-all those ILS's down to minimums in the UK and Ireland winters were well known and you were the man - a sincere loss to Safair even though they gave you a hard time, who could surely do with your services round about now. To all your loved ones-remember the good times-I know I had an unfair share of them. Have a good well earned rest my good friend.

4HP , good moderating,
I feel a thread like this is a wonderfull opportunity for the family to see just how liked an individual was and how his peers regarded him.
This remains a wonderfull media.
To the family my condolences.

It's with great shock and sadness that i read this... still can't believe it! Sadly, those beers we talked about having will have to be put on hold my china. Gonna miss your infectious laugh and that great sense of humour you always had... those were some great times in Kabul!!!
May you rest in peace buddy and may i take this opportunity to pass on my deepest condolences to the Mentis family.

Justin 'Mental' Mentis, cant believe you clocked out so soon. You were supposed to become a dirty old bugger, wearing neon tights and crashing your teenage Grandkids rave parties..... Thanks buddy for sharing some of your exceptionally funny, sometimes downright screwy views on life and the people in it. When copious amounts of vodka were added to the mix the end result was always a topic of conversation the next day at the Kabul breakfast table. To this day I still use expressions I picked up from you 16 years ago, not quite the kinda things that would be repeatable on this forum, but you know what I mean. Farewell my china, new adventures await you........and stop pulling the piss out of that dude standing by the big gate...
My most sincere condolences to the extended Mentis family

God Bless You
Justin,
May your heart rest in peace my friend. We never did see much of each other the last few years but thanks for helping me out with my 1st job 8 years ago.
You did wonders to my mothers attitude to life at the time. with your crude and funny humour. Dont change for nobody.

Once met, never forgotten
Parties, conversation and flying will be all be the duller for your passing
Your infectious laugh and wicked humour will never be forgotten my friend
The surly bonds of this earth have truly been broken
Fly high cuz
Condolescences to family and friends

I am a distant cousin of Justin's and have only just learned of his passing. I have a thread running in Where Are They Now asking for more info on Justin's life and career path since 1996 when I last saw him. Any PMs would be very welcome.
Thanks
Thanks
