So we were sitting on Steve''s verandah in Koh Samui sipping on one or three rum and coke....talking of old times , fond memories , funny events , PEOPLE ! ...when Steve started what turned in to a long conversation by asking ""Whatever happened to.....?""

His suggestion for a new thread...so I will kick it off by asking ...

Whatever happened to MARTIN HOBBS ??
(Engineer with Okanagan Helicopters in Bombay in the mid 80's)

(Anyone wanting to know what happened to Steve ? He resides in retirment on Koh Samui with wife Angela. They have a small business. Steve's sense of humour remains intact ! Me ? I am on my last tour internationally with CHC GO and then transferring to CHC AUS.)

C'mon Manky, you're well past retirement age, you can't fly using a walking stick!:=

Manky,

Just don't paint your walking stick white: it could upset the talking ballast! No idea where Martin is, but on an aside, how are you coping with the latest downpour in Launie?

G'day John. The family is high and dry in Launie. Thanks for asking.Just called them. All ok.

I am currently in Brunei on my last international tour and last run with the 76. Not sure what type I will be flying once I get back to CHC Oz.

Dan,
Both are retired. Red retired to Jacksonville Fla (Sawgrass) more than 20 years ago. I believe Rick retire to somewhere in the midwest. At his retirement party he stated that he was going to go into business with his son. :8
