RH back.

Apparently hiding from the European authorities as a SIM instructor back with CX.

Heads to roll in January as criminal case begins in Paris.

How much will Swire fork out to keep their minions out of jail and the press like with the 49ers?

If this is true, Cathay Pacific could have its very own Julian Assange!

Maybe the Boeing fleet office will take him in? I hear there is a vacant desk there that he could sleep under.

Kinda amazing, he's recruiting pilots that he stated we didn't need as we are fully manned. Keep away don't talk to him, let him feel the love and warmth.

Yep, Boeing SI.

His picture seems to indicate advancing years (or is that stress?).

Interesting career change for him.
What exactly is his instructional background?

He's instructed the odd barrister and solicitor in his time

Christ! These people have no pride do they? Most modern Companies wouldn't contemplate allowing an ex Director to return in such a demeaning way. Nothing against SIs but can't he think of something more enjoyable to do with his bonuses earnt at our expense!!???
People will pass the time of day with him as though he was a fine chap whereas they should shun and ignore him and treat him with the contempt any returning traitor deserves!
Bloody cheek of the man!!!!

Amen Arfur! On the positive side, at least RH might be up to snuff for the SI job. He was certainly out of his depth as DFO. This might just be more his speed.

I know, Dickie's back to take back AT job, since she is too busy lactating herself. At least Dickie can fly and AT cant. Overall they are the same bunch of villians

Arfur

Couldn't agree more but will certainly try. Dickie joins a growing cabal at Tung Chung Starbucks wondering what the hell happened to their life and why they don't have a friend in the world or a hobby. My bet is that he will try and sneak back onto the line as he has a few years left to 65. If he comes over to our side of the field he will need to bring a flack jacket.

He'll come back on HKPA to show us all that it can be done.

With an A scale or director's pension of course.

Hugo

After he stopped being a line captain and sold his soul to the devil...he became enlightened into the ways of delivering CX management group-think, just like KB and a host of others like IW, IR etc. I truly believe he even believed he was a fair and just arbiter between the mighty dollar and the pilot community. However, like many who cross the rubicon, he also believed he knew best and that consultation was not an investment in time worth making.

The Star Chamber is something you can expunge from your Linked-In or Facebook profile but it is something you cannot expunge from your soul.

Perhaps there is a special therapy group in Tung Chung that is helping them through this and that is really why he has come back to HK. Surely it couldn't be for any other reason ...but then again.

Never a member of the "in crowd", so, spent all my career laughing and poking fun at them. Not sure I would want to be part of this group though that seems to have offered a safety net. Mind you, just been offered deep affection by the "Inn " crowd ; I'll stick with them. Hic .

Wow, no dignity, no life, no friends here and no idea about how much he is despised for all the damage he caused.

Those from wealth or power never know who thier friends are until the wheel turns.

Poor Dick has discovered the cupboard was bare.

I think he has discovered that retirement is no fun when you have no friends to have a beer with!

Will he get housing or is there no money in the pot?

Regarding staff travel, I wonder what seniority he will elect to register under?

Retiree plus years served.
S.I. 2015 priority 25.
or
Did he even leave and thus still retains his original seniority date?

I can't wait for him to apply for jump seats for himself and his wife!!!

I was peeing, slipped and hit my head. I saw yellow tails. Would he happen to join the freighter dogs as DFO again?
