Pilot behaviour-Fact or Fiction??
"A pilot who refused to self-isolate was tracked down by staff from an Auckland waterfront restaurant to a nearby bar.
The pilot flew into New Zealand on Saturday and refused to co-operate with HeadQuarters staff when trying to enter, before fleeing the establishment. Staff were sent out to track down him down - he was found 20 minutes later in a Princes Wharf restaurant. The pilot and his crew arrived in the country from a global coronavirus hotspot but were not interested in following self-isolation rules. "When [name amended] was cornered by a 135kg Tongan he suddenly became very co-operative and told us the full story", "The man told the restaurant he and his crew did not care to follow the rules and they were leaving Auckland on Tuesday, "so who cares". |
It's from the Facebook page of the HeadQuarters Viaduct in AKL. Picture of the guy is on the Facebook posting.

The pilot flew into New Zealand on Saturday and refused to co-operate with HeadQuarters staff when trying to enter, before fleeing the establishment. Staff from HeadQuarters, owned by Leo Molloy, were sent out to track down him down - he was found 20 minutes later in a Princes Wharf restaurant. "When [name amended] was cornered by a 135kg Tongan he suddenly became very co-operative and told us the full story", Molloy said on social media.

The proper authorities, including police, had been contacted by HQ about the incident, the social media post also said. |
Reading the above, I'm wondering why, if they want to keep their country safe, are the locals out and about and why are restaurants and bars open?

I am sure glad they quoted the weight of the Tongan... very important to the story.

I know the guy involved - a good bloke (for a kiwi). There were no restaurant/bar closures at the time he was there. Additionally, the crew were exempt from the 14 day quarantine rule. You can argue how was it that CASA and the NZ authorities imposed a 14 day quarantine on pax, but exempted crew? You can argue, that he should have stayed in, but I can't say I blame him for wanting to have a meal and a drink in his home town. All of us are now locked down in Dubai, and even if we had leave, there are no flights anymore.

How were they exempt from quarantine? Does that mean they are certified disease free? Does that mean they can spread it as they like?
I would have thought that Dubai, being a crossroads, is a hotbed of Coronavirus. Therefore all Dubai residents or transients should be assumed infected. |

Exempt but ya meant to stay in your room

Then you're not really exempt.

Yes Captain Rex, but that assumes a certain level of responsibility on the part of the exempted crews. If that responsibility isn’t evident, then the exemption should be removed.

... so we sent men out.. When Sandy was cornered by a 135 kg Tongan he suddenly became very cooperative and told us the full story, after he showed us his ID |
Traffic:
Phew, lucky the restaurant vigilantes were there to hunt him down and demand to see his ID. What were they going to do if he refused further? Beat him up? |
