BHX AMAZING

[moist]

Just like to sat a HUGE thank you to BHX Airport for sending me off so brilliantly into my retirement last night. The controllers for their help (even London Control knew about it!!), the fire department for the amazing water salute (which incredible has a rainbow appear at the very center and the guys from Serviceair and Storm who came to meet the aircraft.
It was truly an amazing end to my flying career.
Thank you again and good luck to all of you remaining in aviation!

Thanks to all of you for the kind comments.

Inkjet, I'd like a dividend for reducing the price of oil, where do I go to claim?

sam1993 please upload that link again, as it doesn't work for me

AirportsEd - I actually joined when it was already BEA, Birmex was "gone" by then.

Steve - yes please!

Heathrow Director - cheers, but that's the one place I've never flown into, ever!

Cortilla, great name - can't put a face to it :-))

Best of luck with your retirement Tibor. Only met you the once but your name has been mentioned several times by the guys and girls of ex Aviance at Cardiff.

[cortilla]

I don't think you ever knew my proper name. You just always called me aviance. Left the company at the end of 2007.

Tibor,

As I said to you on FB, you ARE a legend and the skies will be a lot quieter without you ! I hope BHX security gave you a decent send-off as well ?!

Happy drumming, you old sod !

Thank you all again, for all the warm postings above. I am amazed at all the attention and just can't believe it.
Anyway, good luck to you all and hope Aviation gets fixed one of these days :D

Blimey Tibor! Retirement? I really didn't think you were old enough (you certainly don't behave it :rolleyes: )! Many congratulations, have a very happy time, and maybe we'll catch up in or around Leamington :)
