From: Liverpool based Geordie, so calm down, calm down kidda!!
Pilots, on duty, reading non aviation required books or magazines?
Yes, does watching the rugby on a hand held TV count?

Pilots sleeping on duty in the cockpit?
Yes, if you do a deal with the other pilot you can get a few hours in to sleep off the hangover!

Pilots not doing checklists, or hurrying checklists, or answering checklists without really checking things?
Checks are for wimps!

Someone pencil whip a write up?
Pencil Whip?? Baseball batted more like!!

Good pilots get blamed for something they didn't do?
If you can get away with it, stitch the Co-pilot or navigator every time.

bad pilots getting away with something they shouldn't have gotten away with?
If they do get away with it, then that makes them good!!

In flying, is it better to be good or lucky?
Lucky every time mate, being good requires effort.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE can I have my name in the paper Mr Journalist reading this. I can confirm that pilots are alcoholic risk takers who should all be arrested at the airport for risking peoples lives every day. Can we add a question?

How many of you have gone flying boozed up?

PS. One of the above is true .......
