The Guy Who Flew Thousands of Passengers As a Fake Pilot

This is Thomas Salme, a maintenance engineer who became a Boeing 737 pilot by flying a few nights in a flight simulator and printing a fake airliner pilot license. Amazingly enough, he flew passengers for thirteen years without any incidents.

A pilot who lied about his flying experience to secure a job at British Airways was said to have been caught when he pressed a button 'no qualified pilot would'

The former pilot was sentenced to 12 months in jail after pleading guilty to four counts of fraud, the UK Civil Aviation Authority said.

Yeah, I noticed he didn’t quote America. Which is where most of this Corpie stuff happens.

On behalf of (the mostly good) corporate operators everywhere let me just say "Whew!".

Being a honorary member for your boomer club, I give your Corpie company a free pass. You are alright with me

I guess after reading the report, it was just overweight for the field length.

MYF is already short runways for many planes in largeer GA, as is.

Market prices indicate that your approval currently has *negative* value, somehow. Impressive. Or at least astonishing.

As the bull stock market showed, you don’t have to produce jack to have a high valuation.

They're largely working from home nowadays, which seems odd for a group charged with inspecting flight operations.

I'm not here to crap on hybrid work arrangements -- a suspended member does that far more efficiently than I do -- but there are certain things you actually need to go forth and do in person.

This work from garbage needs to end pronto - and it will. Just watch. Only the jobs from home pre-pandemic will continue.

Wasn’t there a similar allegation with Clay Lacy back when he was at United?

Is that delicious commercial real estate copium, the sort of I’m very familiar with due to my extended family, I’m hearing? I think it is. Working from home is not crap. I flew my desk exceptionally well from home during the pandemic, and if anything we defended the contract better.

The point: I think that some of their work can be done remotely. They push a lot of E-paper, and there’s no real reason to drag into the office to do that. Ramp checks and route checks can’t be done that way, though.
