UAL Divert
The problem with this thread, from day 1, is we have only hear from one "source". It takes two to tango and at least that many to split so I it seems very odd we have never heard a peep from anyone but BoF who seems to be very dedicated to keeping this thread going.
Too many odd bits.
If the captain was out of it why did the FD crew continue on? Why did the company let him? I'm sure the FAA has had a little look in as well.
Do we know the captain is not flying again? If so by whose choice.?
As for denying US immigration access to a N registered plane, any plane for that matter, that pitches up in MIA, I don't think so. They will go wherever they like, talk to whoever they like, and look at whatever they like. And if they snap on the rubber gloves, bend over, because you have no rights.
The majority of this story we have no clue to and I suspect we never will.
