Dear bjm367-80
It is interesting that you take the high moral ground about this near miss with a Brasilia, fair enough it wasn't you but a little birdie told me that you went head to head with a Brasilia last year when it was on a five mile final and you (in your infinite wisdom) decided it was a great time to roll on reciprocal runway with standard (appalling airmanship) no radio calls. When asked by the Bras crew what you were doing taking off on reciprocal RWY with no radio call, allegedly you said "I thought you had me on TCAS". Solid airmanship mate, head to head with an RPT aircraft on approach and no radio calls (given that if you did make the call it would be a lie so you could take an illegal turn after take off) and then make a call like that, keep up the good work. I hope the young blokes in the company take your flying with a grain of salt and adopt a “do as I say not as I do policy”.
Liking the view from the high moral ground shmoo
