Wheelsup Posted December 24, 2012 Report Share Posted December 24, 2012 I think we should all thank the new airport manager Stewart and his team for pulling out the stops and unloading the food relief aircraft in atrocious conditions.

Speccy Posted December 24, 2012 Report Share Posted December 24, 2012 The media must be very disappointed in the Co-op for quietly bringing in a couple of planeloads without all the Berlin Blockade hype. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scorrie Posted December 24, 2012 Report Share Posted December 24, 2012 The Co-Op must be very disappointed that they quietly brought in a couple of planeloads instead of getting some much needed publicity. Fixed it for you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghostrider Posted December 24, 2012 Report Share Posted December 24, 2012 Well done to the Sumburgh Airport Firemen for all the hard work they did off loading the Hercules in the terrible weather conditions over the weekend. The firemen should not be unloading the planes – this is rightfully the work of Lerwick Port dockers whose job it would be normally to unload the cargo boats. Lerwick dockers should have been bussed to the airport and paid treble time plus time and a half for this work. By unloading the plane the firemen have been snatching money than would have rightfully gone to the feed the families of the Lerwick dockers this Christmas. The dockers of Lerwick should now hold a strike without delay as a protest against this theft of their work. Ahhh.........nostalgia! One out, all out!

The co-op must keep 2 days worth of supplies before they run out of fresh stuff... Fixed it for you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
