Delayed last week by an oversleeping F/O, by the way.........
Delayed last week due to over 60 Captain forgetting his passport at home. Flight departed 1+20 late thanks to his old age kicking in. That little error cost our company 200+ connections. They should deduct the cost out his pay.

Same for a flight from Europe to the states that was canceled a couple of weeks ago. Gummer Captain had to go to hospital for chest pains on layover. Return flight canceled at a significant cost to the company. The only good news is it appears the antique pilot will not be returning to the cockpit. One victory for the good guys!
