Last I heard, Eamonn was in Melbourne, Fergie Benton works at base maintenance with QANTAS and Gerry Gibney is a production planner in the engine overhaul facility. Dont see them too often ........ usually christenings or funerals ! Still a few Paddies in the big Q ! Frank F is in engine maintenance as well ! Whats Noel Boyd up to these days ?

I meet with Sacky Ferris from time to time here in Sydney. We have a "Donners" dinner once a month. Mick Arthur, Tom O Loughlin, Frank Fogarty, Sacky, etc. I will pass on the info for the site and get them to sign up.
