CHC Humberside

[Hilock]

Hi All
May be the wrong area and time to ask in the current climate, but does anyone know if there are any connies still at Humberside?

[DOUBLE BOGEY]

What the bejesus is a "Connie", a woman, a Lockheed Constellation - crypic sh1t or what!!!

[Hilock]

Trust me to get a fellow potatoe harvester to answer

[DOUBLE BOGEY]

Still cryptic - are you trying to find a woman. We have plenty up in ABZ but they are all boilers!!!

[DOUBLE BOGEY]

The word is spelt "potato" but you can use the word "spud".

I cannot spell "criptik" either

[T4 Risen]

Not all boilers in EGPD....... there are few imports that are rather nice....

[DeltaNg]

Hmmm

he could either mean

a) Contracts ..... although this would be silly. The base exists, so therefore must have contract(s) - Freud.

b) Contractors ..... perhaps this is a new and affectionate term.


?

[DOUBLE BOGEY]

T4 yeah...the imports are just fine. Mine is anyway!!! Any idea what/who a "Connie" is?

[malabo]

UK, Humberside, wouldn't have anything to do with external loads would it?

[T4 Risen]

DB

not a clue!! my guess is contract pilots

i think they woulds struggle to get a constellation on to some of the platforms down there.. D value a bit to small...

"Connie"

A term used by us engineer types to describe contract labour.
