BRIAN HAYNES - DAN AIR REMEMBERED

Go to content
Hi I am Brian Haynes.. I looked after the flight simulators at Horsham.. The COMET and the B727.
I do have some interesting pictures from the days at Horsham. I was actually a pensioner when the "Sim" section closed down and it was myself and another pensioner who actually locked up for the last time  ! !
Apart from the simulators we had a fuselage section from a 707 for the "hosties" to do their escape drill,
sometimes filled with smoke so they had to extract a dummy passenger as part of the training They didn't seem to mind us engineers helping them with their oxygen masks! !
I joined Dan Air in 1975 and retired in 1992.
