Where is Merlin?

Post by Widow »

Does anyone know? I'm really curious what he's doing now that he's retired as the TC DGCA.

Actually, it's only a one-year limitation and the role that A Regulator describes may not even be limiting in this instance:

Values and Ethics Code for the Public Service - Chapter 3: Post-Employment Measures

What was really interesting was when the previous Director General was hired by ALPA shortly after his retirement from the public service at the end of 2001 to become ALPA's Canadian Air Safety and Legislative Coordinator.

Needless to say, he is collecting a pension(on the taxpayer dime, of course) and associated benefits that myself and a good many of you folks on this forum can only dream of getting.

I notice that the younger of the Taboada brothers, Dennis, or "Mr. T" as he apparently likes to be called, also teaches "Christian-based" maths online.

Do they talk about religion when they teach about SMS?
