I'm with Wally on this one actually. It's written ALL OVER the PLOG, and the Airfield brief, that you must NOT break curfew. We are constantly reminded of it. Why then a Captain should take it upon himself to land after curfew I don't know - especially since we have no based aircraft at BVA so I don't think he would have been able to take off anyway.

It's the same thing with noise violations. Whilst I don't particularly agree with individuals taking the financial hit for these "irregularities", I would expect a severe dressing down for said flight crew. We are actively encouraged to report anything out of limits noise wise (LNAV dropped out, loss of comms, etc) to cover our asses when the Spanish or whoever come after us. If you have some reason that compels you to land or deviate, then do so but file a report afterwards and they can't really come at you.

On a lighter note, why not just land in CDG? That's always open
