This was a perfectly acceptable thing to do 'in the olden days'. The pilots would be asked what they would like as a landing drink, then this would be served as soon as we were 'on chocks'. On chocks meant off duty, so it was fine.
I don't know of any airline that would condone this practice nowadays but it certainly was a nice way to end the flight.
Just have to wait till we get to the hotel/home now!
Oh, the good old days..........
