Pinky - you persistant bugga - I'll move a Motion we allow you into the p1$$up - errrr - Reunion as an "Associate Member".
Any Full Members willing to second the Motion??? :p Ah, yes, Scotty Adams. Last seen a few years ago propping up the bar at the Caboolture Aero Club. Where's Bernie? Still in Port Morbid? Tuohy is still listed in the phone book - PM me if anyone wants the contact number. SP Spakwata in overtime mode Taildragger? Last I heard they were in damage mode after being fined K1 mill for producing their own electricity....... What a joke! :{ |
Eric "Scotty" Adam: ex Glen Murray Syndicate, ex Ansett-MAL, ex TAL; I saw him last year pushing a 'Tiger' around at the Caboolture Air Show, (not flying) and heard that his eyesight was failing.
Bernie as far as I know is still in POM with CAA(or is it DOT) in the Air Accident Investigation Branch. |
|
They were at Kiunga and Tabubil!

Since when did being "blind" ever keep Scottie on the ground?:O
Windshear, any chance I could drop in for a coldie if I happen to be in town ? I promise I wont stay long. |
'Roll Of Honour" for folded wings.
Sharpie,
It would be appreciated if you took on the job of organising a 'Roll Of Honour" for folded wings, given your 'vast' seniority! Would you do it? Torres, second the motion on Douglas Pilots. :ok: |
Sir Shaggs.
Still on the lao? Hows the little champion going these days. Zaijian. :rolleyes: |
Ezyflight.
'Roll of Honour' basically complete in respect to pilots killed in PNG accidents. I will try and compile an accurate document for all staff with folded wings and call upon all staffers to pass on the information to me. I realise that I should have included Black Jack Walker within 'brackets' along with the other three pilots. My error. |
You called, Mainwheel? :p
|
Just for the record ,how many times did you sack me Sir Shags?
|
"Roll of Honor"
Sharpie.
Thanks for that, appreciated. Would we want to read the names out or have them as a displayed list? I have been contacted from some, on your notes, like D&K B, BG, and I know AM is aware of the pi!!up. AC, previous CAA/Transport Exam., also has made contact. ;) |
Ezyflight.
May I suggest that we endeavour to compile a list of all departed ex TAL staffers, not only aircrew and towards this end, I am happy to be the 'mail box' and help out if readers can forward names to me. The list will be made available to all attendees at the reunion. I envisage that immediately before the turps flow, having the occassion 'blessed' by a clergy with few kind words for Absent Friends. Comments welcome. Peter Sharpe aka, Louie the Leprechuan, Looie The Lip. |
Roll of Honor
Sharpie,
Clergy ..mmmm... pity Rev.Doug McCraw (now theres a name to start the list) is still not with us. Will follow the comments re 'blessing' with interest. I know where there is a loud booming Welsh voice, Tony Frogsh!! past PNG ATC. Do you want the names through this forum? If not email me through the reunion web site and I will set it up. :cool: Best thru the web site I think, mate. There may still be some upset family and friends out there... and the intent is not to open old wounds. Woomera |
Torres and Ezyflight; Thank you Gentlemen. You shall both have more than one drink on me on the day!:ok:
You only live twice. Once when you're born. Once when you've looked death in the face. |
For those of you that may not have heard, Don Sinclair is in the ICU at Middlemore Hospital in AKL after a bad car crash. Accident happened a couple of weeks ago. Not sure of his condition at the moment.
|
Eurocap. That's sad to hear. If you get the chance will you please pass on my very best wishes to Biggles and family.
Would appreciate any update and an address by PM if possible. Bob Fulton |
Please pass on to Biggles my best wishes for a speedy recovery and that he doesnot spend too much time in hospital.
Cheers. Peter Sharpe. |
From what I've heard he has broken bones, damaged eye, teeth missing and because he wasn't found for 14 hours the toxins built up in his body causing his kidneys to fail and so he is on dialysis. Only family are allowed to visit but there is an e-mail address one can send messages to. I don't have it at the moment but will endeavour to post it once I get it.
|
Don Sinclair is improving.
He has been transferred from ICU to Ortopedic Ward 17 at Middlemore. His kidneys are functioning again. Messages can be sent to either: [email protected] or c/- Airfreight PO Box 73 088 Auckland or c/- Ward 17 Middlemore Hospital Auckland :ok: :ok: |
Now here's an interesting picture. Was this the beginning of the end?
