So, let me see if I understand the majority of posters here (most of whom I ardently assume are NOT flight crew).

You lot are saying that it is not the respnsibility of the airline to provide it's technical crew with sustainence? You are saying that it is not a safety concern, with, oh, say 200 souls on board?

OK, sure, let's tell the punters that the Captain and F/O haven't been, and won't be fed. The Captain and F/O are now running on fat reserves, and their blood glucose levels are depleting, ergo energy. That depletion affects brain function, and speed of thought and motion, and reaction time.

GREAT IDEA! Fools...

Whatever happened to the old "Chicken for the Captain, beef for the F/O" routine?

I keep forgetting that we simply run on caffeine.
