Yes, it's fair that you shouldn't have to pay for your bottle of water and we all know that terms and conditions have deteriorated over the last 50 years. What you fail to point out is that terms and conditions have deteriorated in

It's very odd that you should spend your spare time denigrating young pilots on a Wannabe forum. Your personal attacks on fellow victims of this
ppy situation and your holier-than-thou attitude merely reflects poorly on you, not us.
