"Pilots can be stupid."Sadly, like all people, that's true. Pity there's always
that 5% or so in the profession that are retarded enough to tarnish the rest.
Maybe they're the ones that have been sniffing the chemtrail fumes.I mean,
what's wrong with mounting a GoPro like many others which you can also hook
into the intercom and radio? I'd be interested to know exactly what sanctions,
if any, were given to him. To both pilots, in fact, as the other had to be in
agreement. Add to that the senior cabin crew member who could have insisted or
even phoned the company before take off when they knew what was going on?On the
limited information we have it appears a cut and dried case for summary (ie
instant) dismissal, perhaps for both pilots, and possibly suspension of their
licences as this is a clear violation of regulations. Actions like this
immediately brings into question whether each is a "fit and proper person" to
hold an ATPL. (Yes, that is one of the criteria for an ATPL and Class 1
medical).Simon

British Airways Pilot Left Cockpit Door
Open So His Family Could See Him At The Controls... And
He's Still Allowed To Fly
A British Airways pilot operating an
international flight to New York JFK allegedly left the
cockpit door open during takeoff so his family members who
were passengers on the packed plane could watch him at the
controls. Sources told The Sun that the cockpit door
remained open for a “significant” amount of time after
takeoff…
