Gulf Air: Alan Mansell retires

[bahraini_brit]

so with AM gone who does that leave at the top of the old timers list in GF? 35 years has got to take some beating! fair play Alan and happy retirement

[Viscount Sussex]

Well, here is my two pennies worth!
First of all, I am not English.
Alan is a great guy, a gentleman and a bloody good operator. I flew with him as his F/O and I found him very pleasant and very fair.
Like anywhere else, there are good and no so good guys on both sides of the fence. (locals and expats).
I’ve always found Alan a good guy and I am sure he will be greatly missed by everyone in Bahrain.
I just like to wish him a happy retirement and best wishes.
Take care Alan.
