Rules or not
This just shows what we think of ourself at Cathay.
OK, so lets say it was authorised, well rehersed etc. But how does a CX CEO, DFO or anybody else waive FAA rules etc. Unfortunately the company and many of us employees think that as long as CX prints something it is the law and sound judgement is left to the people who does the typing.
That being said, awesome flyby, looked really good, 30 or 50 ft, so what, there was nothing unsafe about it. There was nothing unsafe about doing inverted flight at 250' instead of the minimum 300' I had to adhere to in previous life either, but it was still breaking the rules, and so was this flyby.
I will leave to others what the penalty of breaking the rules should be.....
