Good old RAD, you’ve kicked the spin out, now all you need to do is to keep pulling and you’ll be cruising straight and level in no time inshaAllah.:ok:

Back on the charge tomorrow morning; hope to get something published before the end of the working week. Held back a couple of days last week due to unavailability of key people in the office.

Standing by for a position update and how goes it on Rad.

Icarus 15th Aug 2007 18:14

Back to the top!
 
Slow progress this week due a personally very heavy work load. My apologies.

Final meetings scheduled up for tomorow (16-Aug) which should facilitate an internal process to donate direct from payroll via E@SY linked from the Gulf Air Intranet. Once approved I understand it is around 3-4 days work to complete.

We are still trying to determine the most efficient and secure manner for non-GF personnel to be able to donate.

Rad moved to Paphos yesterday I believe so that he is just a stones throw away for Mrs Gammage.

cute_sweetie2000 16th Aug 2007 00:54

hope he recovers soon and find him in his pink f health

radron1 16th Aug 2007 04:11

my thanks for your prayers and thoughts
 
Rad is now near me here in Paphos,he is very very weak lost 20 kilos and has a flat stomach l would die for??????But he receives dyalisis every other day now and we need to build him up and start the work on his rehabilitation his short term memory has gone but he does have a sense of humour although scared as i think what has happened to him is suddenly hitting home but with all your support which l keep telling him about from near and far i thank you all i am very humbled and grateful roni

Mach084 16th Aug 2007 09:59

Give the old boy all our love Roni and tell him the rounds are on me when he gets his lazy bum out of bed.

Cheers
Mach

Has anyone from GF approached Roni or Rad (now)? This a lifetime GF pilot , among many others, and these guys should now have the help they need and deserve. GF is not (or supposed not) a charity but should do their "do" to help its staff. I believe he is still a GF employee, is he not? Come on!:*

binalia 19th Aug 2007 19:45

get well soon.
 
[I]I wonder why you can always read a doctor's bill and you can never read his prescription.[:)/I]

Repatriation for Rad back to Bahrain is being worked on inside Gulf Air. Allow us a few more days for an update please as this request only came in (via Roni) on Friday and was kicked off today being the first day back in the office for those that can help. There is paperwork to complete for carriage and we are trying to get FOC space LCA-BAH for Rad as a 'stretcher case' and into the BDF.

340flyer 19th Aug 2007 20:55

Even though i dont know captain Rad, i just wanted to wish him a speedy recovery and hope he will be fit soon...gods speed to him and any pilot who falls sick....:ok:

sirwa69 24th Aug 2007 19:59

Now in Pafos. Going to see Roni on Sunday and will post update after that. The purpose of this post is just to bring the thread back onto page 1:ok:

On On

ironbutt57 25th Aug 2007 05:20

Good to hear Icarus, hope it gets sorted soon hope somebody whose efforts have brought this to fruition has the privilege of operating that flight:ok:

Icarus 25th Aug 2007 11:40

Just a general update from my side:

We have approvals for FOC stretcher case for Rad LCABAH if we need to use it; I am advised of a 'change of heart' by the Insurance Co. in that they may well cover medical repatriation over and above the annual claim ceiling - just waiting for GF insurance to confirm that in writing - if that is not forth coming then we will use the FOC offer once GF Medical Dept. approves carriage which is in hand and hospital admission is arranged in Bahrain.

On the donation scheme front, regret I have had a busy time in my personal life this week but will be giving time to it with the aim of finalising things this coming week for GF Internal donations. Still a litle stuck on providing an easy means for non-GF staff to contribute but will concentrate on that more once the internal method is up and running.

Check.....keep us posted please!!:ok:
