Guess who's boss again? It's a long story but the acting manager had to fly home for an indeterminate duration and as the previous manager here for over a year, as well as managing offshore exploration support bases in Kenya, Romania and various bases in Northern Turkey, plus numerous base moves across International borders, I guess I was the easiest fix to fill the vacant post. It is not a fun job. It took me quite a few tours to get out from under the title "Base Manager". I enjoyed the challenges but as an instructor and examiner, there was no way I could handle the workload of both posts and I had to choose, so I stepped down after quite a few years of constant headaches and concentrated on the training department, and now back at the helm, I'm quite sure I chose correctly. It probably won't be for very long, but.....all that belly aching I've been doing in the past few posts....lets just say I'm smiling again.
And don't forget what it's all about......flying helicopters baby!
