MK,
So, my stunning naivety is what ?
I land, have a total irrecoverable brake failure, run off the runway and into the paddock.
I’m locked up by the local tribal plod and Emirates leave me to rot. No !

I land half way down the runway in heavy rain, jump on the normally operating brakes and run off the end into a paddock. I’m locked up by the local tribal plod and some highly paid London QC will come to my rescue.
Yeh sure, just like that bloke who ran his 310 out of fuel and landed a mile short.

What do you think, we’re flying around uninsured.
You cock up big time, you face the consequences, it’s the nature of the job.

Anyway that’s all from me; my apathy has taken a hold. No credit for dead heading is nonsense, the rest is just the same S**T different day.
