It is with considerable dismay that I read this unsavoury thread. I am truly abhored that so called professional helicopter pilots would indulge in such mindless abhorent bickering. I am disgusted as a professional Irish pilot that we engage in such ridicule and derisory remarks about fellow colleaugues. What have we become??.. to revel in anothers misfortune is astounding and beneath contempt.
I don't care if the pilot concerned is IAC , Aer Lingus, CHC, Ryanair, Bristow etc, that is merely coincidental here...the issue is that a 'fellow' pilot had an incident and we should all learn from it and aspire to preventing an similar occurance again...rather than casting stones and making disparaging remarks in a juvenile and immature manner. It is absolutely unbecoming of the status and licence that you hold..
Grow up folks and stop letting yourselfs down in the International helicopter community..open your minds and try constructive reasoned debate...
