LGW , your making me laugh now , police boarding a 737 for speeding !! It has nothing to do with police mate . did they put points on his licence and give him a fixed notice fine as well . TSBC it has nothing to do with "colleagueality" at my base i know for a fact that CC are extremly fri...

Sam , i really take issue with your claims of FR flightcrew exceeding limits to make schedules . I can assure you that it is not the case , we are allowed up to max 30 knots on taxi which is almost 60km/h . You really shouldn't cast aspirations on professionals like that , we never rush to make turn...

The different categories of the runways refer to the mi...

The day they expand there , monkeys will fly outta my ass

The pilots, represented by the trade union IMPACT, are using new industrial relations legislation to bring the airline to the court. However, Ryanair has said the legisla...

To bad for SN that the pilots did a strike on friday. But i really hope they will continue this way and make profit. It is nice to see a Belgian carrier is doing well! I wonder how long it will be until the government mess it up for them . Well done though on good results in a difficult market usin...

The halifax accident probably would not have occured in Ostend due to the extra TORA there , someone should explain that to the clown Wiloo .
