Freight Dogs Finally a forum for those midnight prowler types who utilise the unglamorous parts of airports that many of us never get to see. Freight Dogs is for pilots and crew who operate mostly without SLF.

RIP Simpo!!

I had the pleasure of working with him for a year at AIA.

A true professional, gentleman and a bloody lovely guy to work with.

My condolences to his family, RIP Geoff.

A good friend, a real gentleman and an absolute delight to work with over many years. He will be sadly missed by a lot of people in the air and on the ground.
Simpo, this is for you

RIP.

BTD, come on man, get grip and show a bit of class will you?

Wrong threat to drift IMHO.

The thread starter has reported the demise of "one of us" and of course a sad event.

Weido,

You're right but don't understand the "one of us".
I flew with him for more than a year.

Tks/Brgds/Bob.

I see from another thread that Gordon Woods, an ex AIA loadie has passed away, a sad time for us.

both of them excellent guys and a pleasure to work with, and no doubt having a few G & T's once the "sun is over the yardarm"

RIP....
