The Staff Magazines links is now working and there is a great collection there. Well worth a visit. My thanks go out to Captain Ralph Brumwell for loaning his private collection of Staff Magazines and Newsletters for scanning and hence making available to all to enjoy.
(I am very interested in several issues of the BKS Newsletters, Originals,
PDF files or photocopies will do. There is now a collection of all 10 BKS News and a
large collection of BKS News Letters that have been sent in
by several people)
May I recommend that you to visit my Guest book. There are many high quality
entries that paint a picture of the airline from both Staff and Customers' views
for which I would like to say thank you. The link is below.
I welcome all of your comments and suggestions about this site.
I have received this e-mail below from Ian Jeffery. Why not take a look at the Football Club history.
If any of you ex-BKS staff plan a reunion, I would only be too happy to make a page available on this site for you. There is one for Newcastle staff, and one for Leeds/Bradford but how about one for Heathrow, or Southend.
