I can not believe the BA guy, did not divert straight away, going round in circles just hoping the weather improves and then declaring he did not have enough fuel to divert, he should be arrested for endangering peoples lives, he had how long from London to Buenos Aires to have come up with a plan just in case this happens.
probably more interested in Lobster or Beef for dinner!
How many airports did he pass which were OK weather wise before reaching Buenos Aires?
2 things going to kill you cumulus granitas and fuel, how many stories recently have we heard.
Dont blame Commercial pressures, you sign the bloody tech log and fuel receipts, you have a duty of care for every passenger on board, that takes precedence over every thing, commercial not happy, you go fly the plane
