Pilot sacked for snorting coke off topless woman

[ThePrisoner]

Pilot Mike Beaton sacked by British Airways and banned from flying after cocaine binge before flight​

I suppose he wanted to...




...get high.

I was once sat in Stavanger Airport waiting to be called for my flight and in the bar sat two pilots drinking. I often wondered if they were flying that day or if they were being flown to another destination by another pilot.

What checks are carried out on pilots prior to flying?

It isn't against the law to pilot a plane whilst drunk. You would assume most airlines would sack you but you can't get arrested for it.

I mean .. if you're going to get sacked ...

I think you will find you can be - Pilots have been arrested prior to take off before

BA pilot jailed for being four times over alcohol limit in plane cockpit

Julian Monaghan drank three double vodkas in hotel before a long-haul flight to Mauritius

Being drunk on a plane can come with big jail time, it's taken very seriously. Always thought it's a bit daft that alcohol is allowed on flights. But then the majority of people drink and if the majority does it, it doesn't get banned.

was it Aviator Gin?

 

[TeaCider]

PC gone mad, I say.

 

[Frozen Horse]

Off a topless woman? Deserves the sack.

Off anything else would have been fine...

No, they were on the Spitfire.

I guess he picked the wrong week to give up cocaine .

I would have thought that when he arrived home his wife will have signified lift off for divorce proceedings and left his belongings in their hallway, or departure lounge as it will probably have been known as at the time.

Pilot that lives down the road from me told me that, he might want to review his terms and conditions.

We know a film about this don't we?

The most 'amusing' part is in the Sun where it says in the 'the pilots wife refused to comment'

Someone's in the dog house

 

[NorthumberlandBoro]

There is no snorting in the red zone.

Isn't the dog house reserved for things such as not hoovering correctly.....forgetting birthdays...etc...

I think snorting coke off a strippers back is probably elevated from the dog house to run for your f@@@@@ life...
