When in a hole the best course of action is to stop digging. Pilots are never suspended without pay in Thomson Airways. Suspension is a normal practice whilst an inicident of any type is investigated. It is in no way an indication of guilt.

I seem to recall a foreign pilot being arrested in Manchester several years ago for being drunk. He was ritually humiliated by the media and by posters such as yourself on here. I think that he had upset someone in the hotel who called in to say he had been drinking and he was arrested. In the end, after some time and with nothing in the way of apology from the media of the malicious posters on here it emerged he had not been drinking at all.

Why don't we just assume that this case is similar until shown to be otherwise?
