pfffff that's nothing, was he eating spaghetti at the time?Originally posted by pacharan View PostA pilot pal of mine recently came back from a trip in which he had to deliver a small dornier passenger plane to India. It was like fly a few hundred miles, land and refuel and back in the air again. Took them a few days. I'd like to do something like that.
Unfortunately his experienced was somewhat marred on the very first leg. He went to the bog and when he got back to the cockpit, the German captain was sat there nonchalantly "knocking one out". Don't think I'd have fancied spending 4 days in a tin can at 2000 feet with him

Couldn't resist it. Just needed a suitable target. Worth it for the inevitable 3 day ban, though.
