Double Pilot Incapacitation, EZY
Pressonitis or Gasteroentiritis?
Its a well known fact that the SOP '2 pilots must not eat at the same time' is almost universaly ignored on the line, but ironicaly one of the only Skippers to stick to it came a cropper recently on a Nice flight, allegedly.
Rumor has it that on arrival in Nice the co-pilot complained of food poisoning (from the crewfood) but the Captain persuaded him to press on with the return flight to Liverpool. You guessed it, on the way back to LPL the Co-Joe didnt get any better and then the Capt started to get the same symptoms from the same source (sauce?)......OOPS! Again rumor has it that they were both in serious risk of a double incap by the time they landed back at their base.
The ASR makes interesting reading. Maybe they will get an EZY special award for daftness like the crew that diverted into NCL a while back for 'smoke in the aft galley' which turned out to be dryice which had been chucked in the gashbin. One thing is certain they cant promote the capt as he is already a line trainer :-)
