There must be no apprentices left in the world.
« on: August 08, 2012, 01:11:39 pm »
Hi Folks,

I keep an eye on the forum pages and it is noticeable that there is a severe lack of movement on the Air Corps Apprentice page. even the old reliable's like Mick Nugent, Dinger Dwyer, John Keeley are gone quiet. Would love to hear small snippets of info from any ex. Don Apprentice. So lads why don't we revitalise ourselves and start talking again. Best regards to all. Mick Treacy 1974-76.

Currently working with CHC Ireland with Irish Coast Guard SAR Helicopters. :thumbsup:

No Mick, we are all here. There is just very little happening these days worth talking about. Everyone is much busier now due to the decreasing numbers and increased work loads and flying requirements (leading to increased maintenance).

There are just 4 of our class left in, Charlie, Sack, Paddy and me. Give us a shout next time you're in the neighbourhood.

There is only Red O'Keane left from my Seniors (37th Class). I know Dinger keeps an eye on these pages.
