This event took place in July 2018 and further details can be found on AVHerald.com
Just what action the Regulator took is not known.
Perhaps “Culture” had a part to play....?

It makes a cracking read, verging on total disbelief when you first read it.
I had to read it again to get the full measure of just what happened.
CRM non existence.
The Captain conduct needs to be examined by the Trick Cyclists.
It brings into question whether he was mentally fit to fly.

Had this occurred in the UK, a prosecution would undoubtedly have occurred, and the Captain’s licence revoked.

A similar reckless conduct in the case R v. Robert Murgatroyd.
42 months at HMP [AAIB: G-BAKH]

A good read for all Junior Birdmen, CRM instructors & those who think ‘Culture’ is not a factor in aircraft accidents.
