Wonderful article. I remember the first time I flew into the UK.. I think it was via Cathay.... didn't realise that it has now been such a long time ago ?..... I still remember not wanting to leave my grandmother behind, and then I had to join my parents here in the UK for work and for schooling. How time flies. I still recall there used to be some chinese travel agencies that we often used. Far East, it was called... and I think my dear father saw how homesick I was.. he flew me back via BA the following year to see my grandparents. And that was also how.. I also tried to fly as often as I could to see my parents in HK as well... during my earlier years of my career. Similarly the same too with my nephew, to see my mother. 60 years is not a short time at all.. and to perfect flying, it isn't as easy either. People often think that it was so easy... and we talk so much online now, as if something could happen so easily .. but without realisation of all the hard work behind the scenes. Thank you Mr Sherman. For this wonderful memory lane journey.

Mr Sherman..... I didn't realise that it was a Mr Sherman that flew the Cathay routes... Well.. it is a Ms Helen Sherman that went up into space too in the 1990s.. if I recall. Like daughter like father.
