Bad Air....

Oh my....did I touch a nerve?

While reading your above tantrum your Post 34 came to mind. Allow me to quote your words back to you: "I welcome any mature response".

Hmmm....like I said, you're a hypocrite.

Now try to keep your response mature, and be cogent this time.

Ah yes, Basil, the 'Gay Bar'! It hasn't changed; you may recall the sterile decor, the odd checker or sim instructor holding court after a detail, and hairy pilots from various corners of the globe drinking Carlsberg and Stella in dark corners. Most pilots are now too knackered from brutal rostering and frequent 'back of the clock' flights to consider a beer after work at all; and those that do are usually crying in their beer (as per the title of this thread).

The Irish pub in the terminal (a drinking trap if there ever was one thanks, KA boys!) and the Aviator Bar with its Oasis employment 'help desk' are long gone. No real alternate now except a can or two from 'Pay 'n' Weep'.

I do miss the old Kai Tak Cathay Club though; it was usually rowdy and sometimes even cabin crew dropped in after a 'regional' ; then there was also the Police Mess over the road...

Geezzz Raven,

You think that me quoting your past posts is a TANTRUM, boy, are you sensitive.

After what you have posted here, you are in no position to call someone a hypocrite. Now run along and get some self respect.

Maybe I'm getting senile and need to retire and make way for the real pilots - but it looks to me like I get a pay rise from A scale up to B!

Bad Air...

You don't give up do you? You're like a yappy puppy that can’t stop nipping at my ankle!

Your arguments, summed up as "I know you are but what am I?" are boring and repetitive.

I'm not the one in search of self-respect (you previously accused me of having a lofty opinion of myself, remember)....I'd love to sit down and compare log books with you some time. As fun as that would be, I don't think it would help your inferiority complex.

This spat began when I responded to a disgusting post that wished me and my mates dead....I can only assume that you missed this post before it was deleted, otherwise only adolescent bad manners would compel you to continue to spar.

If you would like to offer a mature comment on the propriety of wishing ones colleagues dead, please do. Otherwise, I grow weary…..

the fact you people are in charge of peoples safety is beyond scary. the only difference between this argument and that of my children's arguments is the use of vocabulary.

CD,
The Cathay Club had lots of P45 opportunities: when I arrived I had a few and started joking inappropriately with a manager of previous acquaintance and the more senior guy accompanying him - did wonder for a few days if there might be consequences.
Then there was the time the old barman tried to lock someone in for perceived misbehaviour but our hero, having none of it, kicked the door open.
. . and the incident of the propeller in the flying club Happy days!

p.s. I thought this was just a journal of 'full and frank discussions between colleagues over cocktails' (RIP TCP)
