"Speke2me, thanks for your consideration. To err is human, and this chap will, no doubt, pay a hefty price for his erring."

And no doubt he will. End of his career. Just to say again, it was a mistake, and we all make them.

This thread is a bit like 'tea cup' and 'storm'. As a flying punter, I respect the professionalism of pilots worldwide. I am far more likely to be knocked over by a bus than meet my end in an aircraft, and you can probably multiply the odds by 1000,000 that the pilot flying that crash plane was drunk.

Hope the guy keeps his bloody pension anyway.
