Signing off
 

A BIG thank you to everyone on Pprune/rotorheads for all the discussions, debates, debacles and camaraderie over the last 20+ years on Pprune.
We've put the (rotary) world to rights several times over and I have enjoyed lobbing a hand grenade into many a heated discussion over those years!

I am proud to have played a small part helping three members become commercial helicopter pilots (and I hope it's not in vain during these turbulent times).
Even after I retired from flying 12 years ago and from aviation - 2 years ago.....I still continue to learn from young and old alike.
Aviation just keeps giving!

I now find that I am so far behind the drag curve regarding the rotary world, it's time to shut the hangar doors.

30 years "winding up" and hopefully, now: 30 years - "winding down".

To all helicopter pilots - Respect..... Remember: Aviate. Navigate. Communicate.
(and keep the damn ball in the middle FFS!).

TC signing off.

Have a nice break TC but I need you back here in best analytical mode for first quarter of 2021 when the MCA issue the Contract Notice for the new SAR helicopter contract.

Last thing I remember, I was
Running for the door
I had to find the passage back to the place I was before
'Relax' said the night man
'We are programmed to receive
You can checkout any time you like
But you can neverleave!
:E

Wishing you a happy retirement.....

Phil

Cheers TC, some of us old gits are still paddling like f*** to keep our heads above water in the modern era:) Enjoy your wind down mate:ok:

Take care W.
Enjoy the next 30

Thanks lads. Retirement is better than expected even during these torrid times.

Enjoy your retirement TC. I'm sure you'll pop back in now and then. :ok:
