I am a very proud Schreiner alumni from 1974 until 1979 having flown in Indonesia, Iran and the Netherlands flying both helicopter, and I am ashamed to admit in this forum, airplanes. These photographs bring back so many memories. I have hundreds of photos I would love to add, but they are all slides and I don't have a means to convert them to digital photos.
One anecdote, Dr. Slager and I had an interesting Psychology interview when I first applied to Schreiner. I had studied the Psychology at University so knew how to best answer many of his questions and it was great fun for me torturing him (I thought). I met Dr. Slager at an HAI convention many years later. When I walked up and re-introduced myself he didn't seem to recognize me. I was disappointed. I said to him "Dr. Slager, don't you recognize me?". He walked around behind me and then in front and with many Schreiner alumni within earshot said, "Oh yes, Rich Lee, the asshole."

As an ex-Schreiner pilot myself, I must admit I don't like seeing all the fixed-wing photos, especially as the Airbus caused so many financial problems for the company. I know it's all part of the Schreiner heritage, but can we just have helicopters from now on, and preferably some shots of more of the overseas bases, not just Den Helder and Rotterdam. Surely some of the ex-Schreiner Rotorheads out there must have some photos of Chile, India, Indonesia or Iran, all bases where so many Schreiner pilots cut their teeth, especially when KLM practically forced them out of the North Sea?
TC. The Twin Otters and the Dash 8's have worked alongside the helicopters for many years in places like Nigeria, Cameroun and Tchad, so they probably deserve a special place even on a Rotorheads forum, so don't be too hard on spheri.

Thanks for the support,
the FW photos are only there because of the people who worked with it (I am a absolute rotor guy, never flew FW, only as pax for holliday or work). Some transfered to rotarywing and are great collegues! So have a look at it and enjoy the Orange!!
Here are a few from other places:

Spheri,
Keep up the good work, but please remember that more is not always better. I must dig through my old album and see if I can convert some of my 35mm pictures into something I can make digital and post here (once I can discover how to do it
). Do you have any more of the Schreiner overseas operations in India, Chile, Iran, Nigeria, and Indonesia that actually kept the company going for so many years?

The Ghost of Schreiner.
The paint has been removed from the name. Next job - smoothing down and painting over white. Then, it will be "Schreiner" no more.

What a superb gallery!!!
I used to obtain overflight and landing permits for Schreiner / ACN.
It is nice to see pictures of some of the actual aircraft - both rotary
and fixed wing that I have dealt with in the past. Started dealing with SAW/ ACN back in 1986...
All those ferries down to Lagos via west coast- numerous delays and clearance applications!!!
Names that come to mind Bernard Rexwinkel, Capts Singh, Williams, Anjourin, Patrick Ogunlowo, Chima, Berend Peek - apologies to those that I have forgotten.
Happy days!!!

Bronze bust of Bob Schreiner revealed at Rotterdam airport.
Borstbeeld Bob Schreiner onthuld op Rotterdam Airport
22-06-2006
ROTTERDAM - Donderdagmiddag (22 juni) is op Rotterdam Airport een bronzen borstbeeld van luchtvaartpionier Bob Schreiner onthuld. Schreiner, grondlegger van de Schreiner Groep, koos in 1964 voor Rotterdam Airport als thuisbasis voor zijn luchtvaartactiviteiten. Het borstbeeld werd onthuld door zijn kleinzoon Olivier Schreiner en luchthavendirecteur Roland Wondolleck.
Bob Schreiner wordt gerekend tot de ware Nederlandse luchtvaartpioniers uit de vorige eeuw. Hij wist zich verdienstelijk te maken door het vliegtuig voor velerlei doeleinden te benutten en bouwde aan een luchtvaartbedrijf dat tegenwoordig wereldwijd is vertegenwoordigd. Het bedrijf is nu een onderdeel van het Canadese CHC.
Schreiner Airways vooral bekend vanwege de helikoptervluchten ten behoeve van de activiteiten in de Rotterdamse haven en het Botlekgebied, zoals het vervoer van loodsen van en naar zeeschepen en van bemanningen van olieplatforms in de Noordzee. Bob Schreiner overleed in 1994 op 79-jarige leeftijd.

Is it the new SAR machine form Den Helder
Rich Lee's story of his encounter with the Schreiner physcologist reminds me of my own.
He gave me a series of "paint blotches" to look for a shape in. I was doing okay with nothing too bizarre when he handed me a really interesting one.
I rotated it left then right then inverted it. After several attempts it was clear that this only resembled one thing whichever way you turned it. Female genitalia. After another half minute I declared that I had no idea about this one. Not sure what he made of that!!!!!
He went on to ask me to draw a tree, draw a tree in winter, draw a magic tree.
A bloody magic tree!!!! I drew a cloud with a tree on it with hanging candelabra.
What a job, getting paid for absolute shi*e.
Oh they did offer me a job!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
