Did he turn the fuel off?

[Taxi driver42]

They say he did
But there's another case where the.plane thought it was on the runway and switched fuel off itself on one of them dreamliners

[mercenary for hire]

He probably thought he was turning off the fog lights or something..Easy enough mistake..

[Rat Catcher]

More likely the AC to save a few notes, MfH... being one of them immigrants anall...

I tried to tip a Ryanair flight attendant once and she didn't understand the concept at all, erm. It was back when one could pay for one's coffee in used notes. She didn't have change to hand so I told her to keep it as a gratuity. She ended up sending a (apparently) homosexual male colleague to compensate me with scratch cards to the value of the change. I explained that I didn't want them and told him that the pretty girl could either keep the relevant coins or they could scratch the cards and split any proceeds (probably less than a 38,456,325,674,987/1 chance with a top prize of stg£0.58 knowing that O'Leary cunt) between them. Not sure which option she/they ultimately exercised
.

Defo not irish

[Dr. Martin Gooter Bling]

if somebody refuses a tip it usually means you're an absolute cunt and they want nothing off ye or antin to do with ye. i hadda disgruntled passanger during the lockdown who forced a dirty big tip on me. it's dreadful isn't she says what's going on. where's your safety mask incidentally. it's all a loada bollocks i says and she turned on me rantin and ravin. fare was 12 and she threw a 20 at me makin sure to tell me it wasn't a tip.

They get paid well, are well respected. Get to see the world for free, get to party with the flight attendants etc it's not that boring.

Thats the James Bond movie image of Pilots not the reality .They cannot eat the same meal as the Co pilot .They are regularly drink and drug tested .If they miss a day taking a sickie they will be stood down to local hops lose international flights and higher wages .Most Pilots do not earn Huge money .The Top paying Airline in the World is actually Aer Lingus .Lads working for American low cost carriers earn less than managers in Mc Donalds .If you have any serious health issue like high blood pressure diabeties or serious bad eyesight you are grounded .Nobody really respects Pilots they are just like busdrivers with wings .Taxi drivers and Coach drivers get tips from greatfull passengers .Have you ever given the Airhostess or Trolley Dolley two euro and said give that to the Driver ?

That's factually incorrect:

You were saying !At the entry level, pilots in countries like India might earn around €3,800 per year, while seasoned captains in the UK can command salaries exceeding €413,000 annually. This vast range underscores the diversity of opportunities within the aviation industry. Typically, most airline pilots can expect to earn between €45,000 and €150,000 per year.

It costs circa €120,000 to earn a CPL. Most use Ryanair and other budget airlines as stepping stones. The aim is to fly with middle eastern airlines who have deep pockets.

When I worked for Aer Lingus there was a general tenet of "Eight hours between bottle and throttle". Now, [Thirty years on], it's at least 24 hours. I used to drink with several pilots in Carthy's Drumcondra. By Jaysus could they lash them back when off duty.

The pilots might not get tips but they get a round of applause which we don't get. 

I think they do get respect, if your daughter told you she was dating a pilot would you think, fair play or why are you dating a loser like that? get out of my sight, a fuckin pilot, where did I go wrong?

will they ever be replaced by A.I. and if they are, would you ever fly again?

[Octavia1]

Here's  wat first   came to me  mind wen i herd this theory that " some cunt switched the fuel switches off " ....
Why the fuck would you have a " fuel switch off " switch on a bleedin aeroplane 
??
 




 

If the engine goes on fire you can cut off the fuel supply to douse the fire no fuel no fire remember your Fire Triangle training .

The mind boggles johnny  ... them airplane tings are full o robots an computers to make decisions ...an it alledgedly allowed sum alledged lunatic to switch off the fuel on take off?  Mad shit
... ? Anyway bring on the flyin robots .... if it is murder / suicide  its not the first time

Watch: Plane catches fire during take-off (Video)

This is the moment a Delta Airlines flight was forced to return to Los Angeles airport after one of the engines caught fire during take-off.

Video footage shows the Boeing 767-400 aircraft during its ascent over LA, with fire emerging from the left engine. The plane, which was heading to Atlanta, then circled around and landed safely on the runway.

"Delta flight 446 returned to Los Angeles shortly after departure following an indication of an issue with the aircraft's left engine," an airline spokesperson told the BBC.

Be careful if you get on a plane in the next week or two.  Don't they say bad things happen in three's
