Initial collision at very low speed, and then the parked a/c was dragged a little???

It reminds me the Air France incident at KJFK few years back but the aggressive aircraft was under the command of a Captain.

It reminds me of the Manchester airport incident where the taxiing XL Airways 757 clouted the tail of a parked 737 classic.

Tea, no biscuits for the crew and allegedly the 737 was written off as the sudden sideways load on the NLG distorted the forward structure to the extent the ‘frame was deemed not repairable.

I recall later doing a sub-charter for the affected airline in our ‘NG’. Mea culpa mea culpa but I did NOT mention that on the PA!

At least nobody’s mentioned the BA 747 incident with the refuelling truck at T3 the other week.......oops
When all else fails, read the instructions.

The clue for those who are paying attention was the forum in which it was placed. :YMAPPLAUSE:

True. Am not aware of any aviation incident caused by jerking off at the wrong time! =))

That's the one I was thinking of. Apart from the obvious, WTF was he thinking of?

Typical English public school behaviour. Too many nannies and not breast fed enough from the maternal tit! Best ignored unless they endanger your sanity, the flight, the crew and the bloody passengers.

I am surprised he felt so relax to be naked at his workplace.

Well strippers and whores are relaxed while naked at their work places RiS. So what’s wrong with the odd freaky captain now and then? :p

I recall a few years back a BA F/O taking a selfie of himself and his wang while in the seat in full uniform, then sending it to some tart who made it public. Admittedly he was just flopping it around not jerking it.

From what I gleaned from that dailymail gossip link, our boy said it was taken while in the sim.

If true then I wish the above sim culture would catch on! =))

You believe that? Simulators have advanced considerably then, since I have never seen synthetic radar returns in a sim................
