JFO Suicide attempt?
Anyone have any info about a JFO about 2 months ago who tried to top themselves in Tung Chung after a failed check?
Is it a nasty rumour or fact?

Well done on pushing the thread to the top though

As far as I know, was a guy who didn't pass the F/O freighter conversion so they offered him a S/O spot.
Had a few drinks in the bar in TC and then......
Was good of the company to offer him S/O, it is really not that bad a job, someone should have told him, more cash than a Freighter F/O.

I don't see why this topic should be disturbing or retarded, cp dude.
It's a fact of life that there can be a lot of pressure on people, self-imposed or otherwise. Some people drink, some snap, some just cope with it.
In hong kong,I even saw a therapist in the paper-ads, advertising treatment of "command training stress".
Maybe some are taking their jobs a little too seriously.

There are lots of stresses in this "Aviation" life and we have to learn to cope with the ups and downs. However, I would be concerned over the "mental state" of any pilot in the cockpit who had attempted to end it all because of a bad check, if that were really the case. Would they "loose" the plot if they made an error during a flight and we then ended up with an accident and the loss of many lives. Thats why the doctors look at our mental as well as physical health and it is mandated in law in the ANO.

Very interesting, how do they test mental health on your annual medical to comply with the cited ANO requirements then?
“Take this cup to the loo please, now there’s a good fella… ”
Seriously though, there is some anxiety one is better off without in aviation, locally induced by the attitude police, star chambers or suchlike…
