Can't believe that there ain't no-one from the big blue circus on here !!.

As for me - here's my list :-

LBA - Servisair (psa/traffic)
MAN - SIGMA Aviation (psa/load control)
LHR - BD (psa/Dispatch)
LHR - VS (Traffic)

Not a long list, but worked with loads of airlines in my time at LBA, MAN and LHR.

Anyone work for DNTA in DXB ?. If so, can you e-mail me the address, and let me know what it's like. Quite fancy a couple of years out there myself. ta.

Its good fun actually here in the fatherland, I do still miss the shaking of the portakabin in the winter, and the manner in which a DHC8 could go tech in a every day with a different defect-where is YK now anyway??

Frosty Hoar,

Brymon Reject?

It was called choice. IOM or DXB? Mmmm...... Difficult choice!

How is Hannover? How long you been over?

Anyhow, you appear to be in good humour, so I pressume life is good with yourself.

Winters in Portacabin's....... Those days are behind us all now. But they sure were fun. Plus I think the DH8's are still suffering daily with numerous defects! Nout changes, except for the staff!

Hear from you soon!

Train don't stop Cambourne Weds Colston !

Hey Frosty Hoar - how did you come up with that name? Too many late nights down @ The Bungalow I reckon !

I'll drop you a line later.

Our resident plane spotter from years gone by @ EGGD Whispering Giant will let you know where YK is.

Infact, he's probably just about licensed to come & pick AOG007 & me up from the sandpit to come & visit you for some Oktoberfest left overs ??

Cheers 3 Off The Tee

3 of the tee

At risk of getting way of the thread here,

Just a play on words with Hoar Frost, used to appear on the DHC8s in the morning whilst u were drinking coffee up in the office.

I guess the whispering giant would no where YK is because its probably painted in a fly.be colour scheme now.....


Hope to catch up soon with yourself and NT

Well if your guys are going to be doing DH8 maintenance for BACX, I can only pressume they are firstly paying you well, and secondly, given up on the fact that they can't do it themselves. A damn shame, seeing as a lot of the guys lost their jobs as a result of shut down in PLH, and major cut backs in BRS.

If I ever see you sat at the pointy end, when ever I fly back from the sand, I'll get off. I can clearly remember a flight from Filton many years ago, which has put me off flying with you for ever!

Anyway, look after AJ, I'm sure he will be fine!

AOG old buddy..

Look's like BACX are getting rid of all the Dash8's - there are 3 of them here on check at the mo - and YT and one of the other's sat on the far side of the airfield waiting to be ferried back to canada.

What do u mean it put u off - i was just showing you the full performance envelope of the PA28 !!!!
Just u wait - one day i might be flying one of your A380's if your really unlucky !!!

When are you 2 gremlins coming back from the land of the sand ??? we'll have to all meet up and catch up sometime...

I'll pass my re-gards onto AJ for you...

Unfortunately if wg is flying the A380 you wont be able to see him sat at the pointy end until its too late, I suggest you get on to EK HR and get them to insert the clause "pork pies need not apply" when recruiting for junior jet jockeys.

best regards Frosty

PS WG Only joking, hope I dont see you sat at the front of a blue aeroplane either though

Frosty Hoar,

How true are the words you write! Could you ever Whispering Giant in command of one of those beasts! It create's worrying images in my mind!

Mind you, with that awful colour scheme on your blue one's, maybe he could help out by scratching it all off. I'm sure he could have fun with a few airbridges!!!!!!



3 Off The Tee is back in blighty shortly, I don;t expect to return till at least March, but then again, why leave when the weather is so nice here! Surely you guys should come over here!

AOG007

Ooops!

Almost forgot what the thread was.......

Servisair BRS
Brymon Airways PLH
Emirates Airlines DXB

Not many, but then I have years ahead of me.

Sorry Fiction!
