Cool

Yeah, saw this in the UK press yeaterday. The incident took place about an hour into the flight. The crew dumped fuel (reported as 33 tonnes) and returned. He was arrested, and pulled "funny" faces during his "mug shots"! He was supposedly facing jail, but they let him go after he paid £20,000 for the cost of the dumped fuel!
I am obviously in the wrong job!
