Big Tudor - I think I've sussed you out...

How's life after Mario's in UPG, and remember that night in CGK...

Sussed me out yet???

Uncle Cracker 28th August 2002 19:28

Talking of being sussed out, JB007 I still have the negatives.... :D

Watcher 28th August 2002 23:30

Only a rough guess but I reckon Banzai Chap in a previous PPRuNe life was Anjin San.

Big Tudor 30th August 2002 12:46

Hey rentaghost,

I still get cold shivers down my spine when I think of Mario's. Still got Bintang poisoning!!!
Since there was only 3 of us in CGK it narrows it down a bit. Did you suggest or buy the BJ's? McSatay & Chips anybody.

rentaghost 30th August 2002 17:12

Calling Big Tudor...

I did the buying... or the company did anyway!

Glad to hear you're still kicking and screaming - keep my I.D up your sleeve!

How's ten bellies thomason and nathan ray ???? are they enjoying there life in Dubai ??

Fiction 8th September 2002 05:39

Did you know that "Whispering Giant" was the nickname for the Bristol Britannia !!!

Yes the three of us are OK here in DXB. Fortunately the operation does not have a lot of the "in your face" problems you would normally have ie very few wx probs locally around the Middle East, no slot or ATC delays to deal with, strikes, except DAC, few tech probs, average age of the fleet being only 3 years old.

So I am looking at the Emirates network this morning and not one single delay is posted from any of the 60 destinations around the world we are operating to today with 43 aircraft.

There are other problems we encounter though of a different nature !!!

:cool: :cool: :cool:
