Too bad they did'nt choose to keep 4 or 5 for posterity sake.
My husband told me that the crews used to wear white gloves which he found interesting ,dont know if they do that anymore.
Stop thinking in a sad way Ally. Remember that if one airline closes then the next one opens that the way it is. If your husband was a contractor then obviously at JAl obviously could not expect to be hired at permanent basis or you know like being a real member of the crew. I had a friend from JAl many years ago when I was younger, he used to tell many funny stories like about a guy from Northern europe who keeps writing to him, but a person had some minor criminal problems with his life attitude, and every time I met a person, he again told me that other person is writing I am not so sure if his own police was not interested with that other person I can not say that. And we had met couple of times, at a time, I decided to help him, because I started to have the remorses, and at the interview With Europe I said that I am having the remorses because one of the American Capt he was good person a little bit funky about life, is reading both of us at the same time, about our daily problems, and i can not stand it anymore because its sounds like we are using a friend's patience and that he has two kids, he was divorced, and really I can not live a person on a spot. At a time knowing predicting non future of this entire JAL, and two little kids at home, I decided to take the action . Since he did not have a crime record at all, was just a good person a fellow. Till now I remember his excitement about this other person who was writing this happiness on his face about flying, he was very polite a little bit confused. However, this JAl person will never know that it was me who decided to help him. And that was a good base in Europe. No criminal records at all, without further chances of flying, was stationed at the base in Europe while being in military. I said straight that the other option, which was less interesting was Africa because I am African as well, with a blond pony tail. And I thought this way all right whatever happens, then I can return to Africa to my house not neccessarily flying but I can work for the gvt and he could fly around. So you mustn't worry so much there are next doors open always. Yes I like to fly helicopters, but had never been interested in flying seriously in Japan at all, just because . Feeling tired sometimes reading these blogs really and these hopes. Melu
