In the pub on Saturday I witnessed a hate crime

[Sir C]

Here's one for you, sc

who would have thought that sacking a pilot with a fear of being trapped on an aeroplane would be unfair?
And he is seeking reinstatement.

Marvellous, absolutely marvellous.

I know any number of pilots who suffer from fear and anxiety when they're rostered to throw a 200 ton aeroplane at a Greek island in the middle of the night with no radar cover, when their sleep patterns have been devastated by 3 days of mixed duties and they're dozing off in between desperately hoping the cloudbase is above Sector Safe Altitude when they get there... that's simply normal.

This is why it is always best to try to be more drunk than the pilot when you get on an aircraft. Hard work some times

It's the coke fiends you want to worry about. Sleep patterns all to hell.

Remember me mentioning my friend and his being placed on 'performance wossname'? He got signed off for a couple of weeks with stress, went back to work, got ignored by his boss, flipped out and yesterday afternoon just walked out at lunchtime. Solicitor's appointment today. This is going to be fun.

Well, they should give him chance to 'explain' all that happened in a fit of pique.
OR, that's it and the gloves are off.

Enjoy the fireworks!

It sounds as if they're shítting themselves now. It seems that the initial interview with his boss that started the whole thing off was something of a blunder.

Fúck me, they're going to have to pay him a fortune to go quietly and he'll walk straight into another director's job

I was in the cockpit of an A380 last week.
Doesn't seem like much fun. Cramped and like a video game.
the little room to have a kip is grim too.
