Pilot lands in court over false claim

[Happy Trails]

A strange case which I find unaccountably sad.
And strange too that it took almost three years to get to court.

A PILOT who impersonated an aviation inspector on a Qantas flight from Singapore to Australia and threatened he could ''ground this aircraft'' has avoided a criminal record.​

Pilot had to eat humble pie. Maybe a further order by magistrate would have been in order.

Nice to see pilots face the same problems as the rest of us when travelling as a passenger.

Clearly a true wa.ker. Great he was caught. I hate bullying of staff just trying to do their job.

I found the FA's statement re the overhead bins that he ''paid for the seat, not the locker'' interesting. I've seen many posts on AFF and FT that seem to disagree with that statement.

Would love to see an airline ban carryon all together. Sit your cough in the plane and put your luggage in the trunk...

I wonder about his job.
