Goodbye and thanks for all the fish!
 

Just completed my last ATC duty today prior to full time flying job.
Just like to thank all of the Guys and Gals at EGPF (5 years), LHR (22 years), and BHX (3 years) that had to put up with me......You all did very well!!!!
I'll miss you (a bit I think!!??)

Jez Cooke

Maybe he thinks some things are best forgotten :eek:

But we weren't that bad (were we?).

Goodbye etc
 

Thanks for all the messages and (many!) PMs.....
I was amazed at who came out of the "woodwork" to wish me Good Riddance!!
Many many happy memories, thanks guys.

Jez.

Some of the best quotes I ever heard at Heathrow came from the mouth of Cookey...

(During a typically manic early morning session on GMC 2)
"Hey supervisor, pass me a fresh boy will you, this one's split!"

(To an Air Canada pilot who was a bit unsure of his position after vacating the runway)
"OK, come on, get your map out."

(To a private jet whose command of English wasn't quite to Jez's high standards)
Jez : "(Callsign) Cleared for take off 27R, surface wind XXX/XX"
AC : "Confirm, clear to take off?"
Jez : "(Callsign) Oh just go, will you?!!!"

(Sitting next to me in GMC)
"Dear God, I can't believe I'm working with someone who went to a comprehensive school!"

Look after yourself old bean, give my love to the Windsors, whot!

Adrian

Jezza! Your niche at last !
Have I missed a PU? Looking forward to another jet fix instead then.......
all the best,
L & K,
Grumpy Zero Two

.....and one of my Jezza favourites:
"Air Maroc (number), is there any truth in the rumour that you are going to push back?"
Cheers Old Boy......
