Thought you would like to know whats been done. my friend and I spoke to another Capt today, who is very approachable, and without mentioning any names explained the situation. He knew who we were talking about, and aggreed that it had got worse over the last couple of months, so we decided it was best coming from someone outside of the airline. Me, I used to work their as well and know him, so I called him, explained how we were feeling, not mentioning any othe peoples names, he got very angry, called me a lot of names, and so on, but I said that if anyone suspects him of drinking before a flight, I would report him at once, I explained that I had called the caa for advice, mentioning no names or airlines, ( which they hated ) and I was willing to call the chief capt. I explained that we are giving him a chance, I also spoke to his wife, who was a lot more understanding, and she aggreed to help as well, we will keep in contact, and as he knows, I still keep in touch with many C/C, and if anyone mentions anything like this again, I will report him. I will not even tell him I am going to. He did say that e knows many pople where I work, and contracts can be terminated for a lot of reasons, but I am hoping he will calm down and nothing will be done about it. Lets just hope it works, I am not completly pleased with this idea to be honest, because if it all goes wrong, then we could be to blame. But this is so hard its amazing.
So what do you think, right way to handle it? And please be nice, and feeling bad enough about this as it is!!!!!!!
