Looking for a retired ATCO
Hi all,
At the request of a neighbour (long lost sibling), I'm asking for your help to locate a retired ATCO called George Rose. I believe he worked in the London area - both Heathrow and Gatwick mentioned - but couldn't be sure. Any info appreciated!

Looking for retired ATCO
There was a John Rose, a crew chief on B Watch at the old LATCC. He went to Maastricht I believe in the mid eighties. Will certainly be retired by now.

No relation of mine as far as I know.
Must have been a whole bunch of Roses in ATC at one time.
Bern Oulli, aka Pedro, aka Peter Rose

The John Rose who signed my farewell card at CATC in May 1983 was ex Fleet Air Arm - any help?
PS noted his name on a door at Eurocontrol training school in Luxembourg in about 1990

Thank you HD, or as someone remarked, "A Rose by any other name would smell."
[Thread drift warning.] A distant relative of mine did work as an ATCO at Heathrow I believe, name of Alan Sabourin. Retired in the 60's I think. [/thread drift]

One and the same. Sadly HD is correct. He was a Huguenot and an associate of my late father.
Anyway, have we found George yet?
Plus I am intrigued to hear about the existence of a list of retirees.
Lon More, is that just retirees from Eurocontrol?

It may be someone completely different, but one of the articles of the following link mentions a John Rose, about 76 years old, from London, now living in Luxembourg. Even mentions an e-mail address.
