Today was my last day in the Office dealing with safety. It was a good and productive day. Much of the chat in the bar tonight was of doom and gloom following a briefing from the Director of Flight Operations to a GRT class. I had a chat with a manager last night and he was less than positive in the resurgence of the economy. People are talking about a 3 year recovery just to get back to the level of last August. I feel sorry for all the little operators and new companies who are starting out and really have no chance to make it through the next 2 years. It is going to be a long hard slog. ‘It’s the hardest game in the world this aviation.’ Maybe I’m getting old but, I am getting increasingly annoyed with people’s time keeping. Why do I have to spend my life waiting for people who can’t get to an appointment on time? Maybe it’s the soldier in me; maybe I’m becoming a grumpy old man. I do find it so rude that my colleagues keep me waiting as the float about with scant regard to me. I’m going home for a few days, that’ll give me time to calm down.
