I-FORD,

You don't get it, LTD was a ... British National and a BA Captain.
So aways right then on PPRUNE.

As said again people, if this IB crew did take-off contaminated this was a grave error, and we all agree I hope that LTD's reaction to something he noticed on it's neigbour aircraft was very commendable and proof of airmanship.
However, unless we have HARD FACTS here, and unfortunately, only images can give us this, we are NOT to blame extreme unprofessionality to the Iberia flight-crew. This whole thread is due to 1 eye observation. NOT MORE.

IN FACT: THe IB crew did in NEVER say that they didn't de-ice previously, they merely said that they did not require any de-ice before pushback.

It is a shame that we do not have any images, this would make this thread a professional one compared with the tabloid gossip it is now.

And I am not Spanish.
