More sad news -
another British Midland colleague and a dear friend - I heard today that Andy Cookson former LHR duty officer and station manager in the 70's/80’s/90’s has died today.

I was only only going to give him a call soon :(

After BMA where he had become BD's ground operations Director, he then went out to the Gulf and worked for one of the Legacy airlines, then moved back to Wales.
