seems a bit steep the charge ............................... but, this is the terror world

 

you'd think there'd be a better way than turning the aircraft around - like a 'refuse chute' or a 'straight jacket' ?

 

you'd think the young bloke would declare 'bankrupt'

If it had been an accident I would've said it was a bit steep, but when he is under the influence of alcohol as well as cannabis I say tough luck.

 

With two kids and another on the way he should be old enough to know better.

 

But I do agree that there should be another way.

 

I often wondered how hard it would be to administer a sleeping agent to the pax area without affecting the pilots:wink: That would save a heap of trouble:chuffed:

23 year old with 3rd child on the way full of grog and dope gets upset .... I am surprised.

 

If the circumstances were reversed, Mr Bogan would be trying them out for millions.

 

How did he even afford the plane ticket in the first place? Is there a new "Pregnancy Bonus"?

Flying is now the cheapest way around. ( unless you hitch hike). Having children doesn't require any intelligence, or imply any heightened sense of responsibility.automatically exists. (UNFORTUNATELY). Nev
