"Teasing the guy with come-ons? Carrying on about their sexuality? Whatever, these things and more, especially with a few drinks under his belt, could easily upset just about any guy.
To earn themselves a 1 vs 2 smack-down, I reckon they probably deserved it."
Ahh, the old homosexual advance defence.
Murderers have used this to lighten their sentences, or escape punishment completely.
There is NO excuse for physical assault.

Excuse?
Provocation is not an excuse.Someone offends a member of my family...that is provocation.They get a knuckle sandwich..pure and simple.Everyone has a breaking point.I don't care what is said to me or about me.The same does not apply to my family.You upset my wife or my children then you are in deep Ka Ka.
It would appear a close member of the Captain's family was maligned.He reacted appropriately,on his own time.He should not have been stood until he arrived home(if at all).

Effective CRM in practice - ie. beat the crap out of someone until they see things your way 
Also heard the story about a family member being involved and in the same situation I like many others would quite literally take things into my own hands, particularly with a skinful and outside of the aeroplane.

Heard a totally different story to what is being told here and on the media.
I heard that a fight broke out between the Captain and the First officer. But then again its probably a rumor. Its probably wrong. My source though can be thought as reliable as a CC member operating on the flight the Captain was on to pax home.
So yeah!
Weird!

Distended RollzRoyce
My next door neighbour's uncle's cousin on his mother's side has a dog treated by a vet whose younger brother once slept with a hostie whose brother is CC with JAL and he was at the truck on good friday in 2002 and as he is a reliable source saw RollzRoyce tossing off while eating a meat pie and talking to Geoff Dixon on the night in question.Conclusion...the CC member beat himself up.
A CC member a reliable source?You schmuck!!

Write australian ,shmuck is a septic tank word!
Some years ago the bridge tween the truck and ANA hotel was the scene of an altercation with a BA fo getting the sh**t kicked
out of him , ending up in hospital for over a week. He maintained
it was the locals ,but it was more likely to be US crewmembers
after he got a bit fresh with one of them ( of the opposite of course). The bridge was subsequently renamed B ******rs bridge in his honour

The Capt involved has no history of this sort of behaviour, as you would hope and expect.
To quote the papers, the two male cabin crew are 'mystified' as to why he assaulted them. Hmmm. I bet they are.

A nice outfit to party in $200
Entry fee to Tokyo nightclub $10
Copious amounts of alchohol $185
Seeing a skipper punch out two poofs.....Priceless.

yes this was one of the best threads ever till the moderator got hold of it yesterday.
look at the views.
the humor was sensational.
but the one about elevator trim required every time a particular f/a used to move down to the back galley of a b737
now that was a priceless post.

ah --this brings back great memories of an incident a few years back when a maintenance crew were sent to singapore to fix a broken 744.
after working 40+hours straight in the singapore heat -the boys quickly went back to the hotel room refrenshed up and went out straight to the 4 floors of whoars on orchad road.
many hours later one the blokes disappeared to the second floor and was cosying up to a she-male- we managed to save him from the she-male's clutche's but he didn't take to kindly to the help-a scuffle(punch up)broke out.
any way -whats this got to do with the thread well....
well what happen's on tour stay's on tour.

That reminds me……I once new a guy, who’s brother’s, girlfriend’s ex, (now gay) knew a QF LAME that arrived a B737 a few years back and told this story.
Upon arrival the nose oleo appeared to have deflated, however the A/C taxied and parked normally. Then in the Tech log was;
“Aircraft requires spirratic applications of elevator trim in cruise (FL350). First 2-3 units nose dwn followed shortly after by several units nose up. Repeated several times throughout flight at varying intervals.”
The LAME was very puzzled by this, and knew no Maint. Manual could ever explain what he was about to discover. Suddenly the nose oleo returned to normal extension just after cc disembarked. He looked closely at what he thought was the ass end of an elephant……..Sh*t No…. it was C…D the CSM surrounded by several hershi highway boys.
Well all was explained, and from that day forward a notice to crew explained the intricacies of flying the B737 with C….D on board.

Ye Ha……
