Look mate, I think the whole point of my post flew straight over your head.

As the crow flies?

As an airline Pilot myself, I can assure you the accent, gender, age of your Pilot has absolutely no baring on their ability. We’ve all worked sodding hard to be at the pointy end and are continually tested to ensure we maintain standards of safety to the highest degree.

While I'm sure I wouldn't find anything about gender and accent that would have any bearing on ability, I was fairly sure there would be a maximum age for airline pilots. So I googled it. Commercial pilots are required to retire at 65.

That requirement should apply to politicians. Then we wouldn’t have these senile pensioners running the world powers. Love the way they can’t be trusted to fly a plane but can be trusted with the keys to the nuclear button [emoji2357]

 

[Questions]

Why has this thread been moved ? I’ve missed something haven’t I ?

Just like the colour of skin or their sexual orientation, a tattoo is gonna make no difference to me when I’m told not to inflate my life jacket until I have exited the aircraft or who I’m asking for another £5 half pint can of warm lager

Working in Airlines isn't what is used to be. They'll take any fatty with a tatty now as long they're cheep
