Reading Michael Stokes' vibrant memories of the early days of Gulf Aviation (GDN, March 27) brought back my own wonderful recollections of the 36 productive and memorable years I spent with the airline from 1967 to 2003.
When I joined the airline on May 1 1967 as a clerk/typist at a princely salary of Rs330 per month and then went on to become secretary to chief pilot Captain James Madle, little did I imagine that I would remain with the airline for so many years and be personally involved in the major projects that turned it into an international carrier.
