Going around in circles

[Eddie the Eagle]

It's quite amazing how we all get along so well, considering you have one group of people who think they're gods talking to another group of people that think they're gods . All in jest, of course. I'm the first to take the piss out of myself and the anal idiosyncrasies of my workmates .

I'll flick through your sig and send on what I can. You may get requests from my support accounts which are usually better suited for some gifts. Don't worry about returning anything, I have more than enough piling in each day

Thanks Bob
Will keep a look out for you.
Glad that you told must_dash what you did. I am ex BA (Speedbird)

Must_dash and I have been discussing the industry between ourselves for some time. That's why he threw me the bait .
I had a bad feeling that I was going foot in mouth when I made the BA gag. I work in Melbourne but we haven't had BA coming here for quite a few years now. They were always extremely professional operators. I'm still in Melbourne but look after airspace around Perth these days (around 4000km away!). I always used to get a chuckle (some others around me might have eye rolled) as the BA 74 (speedbird 10? can't remember) was enroute to YSSY and when switching freqs, always called on with "Melbourne Centre, The Speedbird 10, maintaining flight level XXX". Fair enough though, for a long time you were the envy of other carriers and flew the Queen of the Skies. . On a side note, the demise of Concorde broke my heart. My number one bucket list item since a young kid was to scrape together enough money to buy an around the world ticket, knowing I'd only ever be able to afford just one leg on her.

Well Bob
What a great story. Perhaps we can exchange some aeronautical stories ourselves.
Keep attacking, who knows, you might get to fly into space with Branson someday.

Seem that @Dan is also in the game.
@Eddie the Eagle, just sent a neighbour request.

Hi there must,_dash
Just had a quick text with bob69bob. He told me that you worked with Qantas. I worked for British Airways.
Had a look at the items that you require but unfortunately I have none of them in my arsenal. Perhaps later.

Ahhh, no, that's not quite right. He doesn't work for QANTAS. The bait he threw me about calling on freq and asking for direct tracking before saying anything else was in reference to a conversation we'd had before when I told him it drove me bonkers that contrary to their company instructions to try and stay on published routes. They always, ALWAYS ask for it. I see the requests go into my data strip from departures (I work arrivals sectors from A090-F600) sometimes when they're through 1500 feet! And they still do it again as they come on frequency. Grr, lol.

Sure you can become my neighbour, I could also use spare props. I will await your invite.

Hi Blue. Been rather busy of late but will be putting you down as a neighbour now. Regards E the E

 

[Eddie the Eagle]

Welcome aboard, Eddie. Maybe I can help you? I'm a full time air traffic controller when I'm not playing airport city. The question is, can you really trust me?!?

Hi Bob,
Have got 2x Bob69's, one for NO GIFT and one for Catlyst. Which one do you want me to use or are they both you.

Both me

Catalyst is my main, the other is a gift support account and better suited to gifting you building items that you may need

Thanks. You wouldn't believe me if I told you. Hundreds . But don't stress about returning to me, my network is excellent to me. That's what I love about these forums, everyone looking after everyone else . My needs are few at the moment so it's normally just as easy to read off what is in my game name.

That's fine
Will keep sending you Wireless Compass until you tell me to stop. Attitude Indicator comes in at my level 46, so not far to go, and Earplugs at 51, so will alternate when they come alive. Have a good day and weekend chum.
