Also a non event. The Captain not in uniform would indicate it's not a commercial flight. What's the matter with you people? You will be no doubt horrified to know that in my 44 years in aviation I have sat either left or right seat - and occasionally even hand flown - a variety of airliners ranging from the Comet 4 to the L-1011. I have never held a pilot's licence. Before the lunatics took over the asylum this was more common an event than you could believe. I can't recall airliners falling out of the sky all over the place. There will always be one offs, but as I have already said, even those who are qualified and rated have totally stuffed it for no good reason.
