Kudos to Jetblue FO
Multiple thumbs up to the Jetblue FO.Not going to speculate on what caused the skippers episode but getting him off the flight deck was the right plan of action. Never a good PR move to have a skipper down the back asking his passengers to pray.

Cpt Underpants, your obviously not a F/O in HK.

This should be taught in CRM to some of the locals.

Putting this in a forum in the FH is irrelevant. An F/O flying in the US&A did what he was trained to do. Good. Great. Near death experience etc...

Post this awesome, breaking news in "Rumours and News" or "North America" maybe?

Good grief Cpt Underpants,settle down old boy there is no need for yelling.I thought it might be relevant considering the cockpit culture in some SE Asian airlines.Sorry for stepping on your lawn,I must have missed the sign!

Its ok undies, I understand where you're coming from.

I too will be suffering a little more than grumpy-itis if some gel wearing, earing adorned 20 yo sky-god to be, locks me out of the flt deck while I'm out easing the back pressure! (providing I haven't actually gone stark raving mad that is)

Will be interesting to see what comes out of the report though.

Any truth in the rumour that CX have already shelved the proposed "annual sanity check" at our medical, as they reckon we must all be slightly mad to work here anyway?

Say it ain't so!!!!

Before I joined this circus known as CX, I read some informative posts from Cpt. Undies and was thankful for the information. After I joined this circus, I flew with "he that is known as 12 angry....."............ and he promptly became the only person in my 20 years of aviation employment to earn a spot (again, the only spot) on my no fly list.

Someone please tell me he's not one and the same person!!!!!
