Hi all,

I have missed everything since late June, I was wondering what my old mates in Cargo Lion are up to??

If someone could give me a brief run down on where everybody is I would be very grateful.

Boy I'm so glad to be back!!

I too would like to know where everyone has gone...
Maybe they might know where there's a job...

I still search a position as they won't pay me to surf... thats ocean waves you computer geeks.
Ola's driving his Cuda, unemployed.
For me
the beach at Waikiki is getting old and I don't have the 'doe' to ship my stuff from Lux.

Anyone know where our 8's went?

Just another unemployed DC8 Captain.

The one DC8 (TLB?) is still parked exactly where it was left. Hasn't moved an inch.

I saw a Cargo Lion DC8 parked at Chateauroux
yesterday. Looks like it's been there some time.

Hi guys,

We at Aer Turas took 4 ex Lion pilots,
D.S.
W.P.
P.W.
B.C.

Also the ex Lion DC-8's are owned by Anglo-Irish Bank, based in St.Stephens green in Dublin. So they're very keen for us to take one of them and put it on our AOC.

So keep watching this space!

Ireland's Call: Please use whatever influence you have to remove the last 8-62 from LUX. We need the parking space.

Edit: Dunno if the above helped, but LX-TLB is in Cargolux's hangar for a gear swing & flap repair. Movement?
