Rest in peace Jim.
Very sad news indeed.
We have lost a very good man and gentleman here in Emirates.

Deepest condolences to his family.

Very sad news, glad I had the privilege to know you and the joy to have been your FO in the early days and co-Captain recently, truly a gentleman and a person that will be greatly missed.

Very sad news. Knew Jim since Falcon days. Have flown together many times and shared many laughs.

Think he was quitting this year. There is a lesson in this for all of us.

A sad day....

Sat with him only the other day in ground school. Enjoyed listening to retirement plans. A true gentleman.

GoreTex 3rd Jun 2015 12:40

Same here, we talked about retirement not long ago

givemewings 3rd Jun 2015 12:53

Very sad news. I only had the pleasure of flying with him a few times, but also saw him around HQ and he always had a smile and hello for me. One of the good guys for sure, we knew he had our backs on board.

Thoughts with his family and friends.

Jeez, not good, really decent bloke, RIP Jim

yardman 3rd Jun 2015 13:02

He was definitely one of the good guys.

Hogg 3rd Jun 2015 13:05

Tragic.
RIP Jim

A definite lesson in this for us all...

These nonstop 90 hour schedules and continuous back and forth adjustment to our body clock most likely contributed. Maybe not, but I'd be willing to guess it did. This lifestyle takes it toll... especially here at EK.

RIP Jim, you were a great guy who will be missed.

SOPS 3rd Jun 2015 13:59

Very sad news, a lovely guy. I did a RTGS with him just before I left. A true gentleman.

Just remember guys, 90 hours a month, at all times of the day and night, might not be good for us all as we get older.

JJ RIP and deepest condolences to his family and friends.

A true legend. A master of CRM, Courtesy, Respect and Manners. There goes an aviator who anyone would have enjoyed to fly with. Not enough gentlemen around like him and he takes with him a small part of the generation who are pilots that knew how to actually "fly" the plane.
