Is it anybody else's business? I'd suggest not.
But If you really want to know, ask the operating captain of the flight.
So I'm with GUMP on this one one, it does none of us any good gossiping about it on here.
The story doing the rounds on watsap is full of holes and inconsistencies, so I for one would rather it be left well alone.

Whatever happened to the presumption of innocence fellas?
Come on guys.

(And Betpump, your post #16 - a little decorum perhaps?)

I am astounded at the level of maturity displayed here today.
Let us hope the same respect will be given to the next round of wrongly-accused g day workers.

You guys are causing so much damage in pursuit of your curiosity. Very sad.

Oh well that's put that to bed then. Complete non story then.

Good to see the consistency from the 'presumption of innocence ' brigade. Where did you blokes stand on the S/O 'rape' case? or maybe the infamous 'Hamburglar ' incident from many moons ago or the all time great 'grey sweater, cockpit fellatio' story a few years back?
No opinions offered on those ones???? No scuttlebutt around the crew room. Just shut it down straight away did you with a very stern " listen boys it does us no good...........".
How high is your horse boys.

Methinks they protesteth too much. Back in your boxes chaps - don't go asking questions or you may do too much 'damage'.
Blimey - the appetite is well and truly whetted!!
What's the point of a rumour network if you can't share a juicy scandal without being ticked off by some jumped up know all who has exclusive access to the 'big picture'..

I truly am ashamed of some of the inconsiderate peers that I know only act this arrogant because they hide behind a perceived cloak of anonymity. Believe me, it wouldn't be too hard to find true identities if real damage is done.

Once again. If it's a non story as is claimed what's the problem.
And once again for the "shut it down or tea and bickies" brigade. No names have been mentioned and bizarrely no alleged events have been mentioned or alluded to. Which makes it arguably the most bizarre thread in PPrune history and would make any D&G procedures against any individual very unlikely.
So to sum it up so far. We have learned........At some stage on a flight between Hong Kong and Vancouver something happened with an unidentified Captain that was very scandalous according to Winnie at door 5R who told Joyce at 1L who watsapped Crystal on a G day.
I can see why you blokes are up in arms about the defamation going on here....... I had better watch myself it's an open and shut case.

Maybe this as a suggestion to a company known for it's compassion and for it's strict duty of care policy.
A simple Notice to Crew.......... "It has come to our attention that a rumour is being spread amongst the Cabin Crew and some members of our FOP personnel concerning ............... We would like to set the record straight.........."

How hard would this be?
It would quash the rumours and stop this man's good name being dragged through the mud.
Seems logical to me.

The facts

Sigh - fine, in order to put everyone out of their misery, here's what happened:

During flight, as a suspected result of a "psychotic sudden onset of ethics & morality", a senior CX manager stood up and started to rant that the employees were being treated poorly. Citing such incidents as the introduction of HKPA, the selling out of the ADL Instructor cadets, the unilateral cancellation of RP07, continuous pathological degradation of Ts & Cs etc... said manager stated for the record that Management will now change their ways and start truly acting like the 'Caring Company'.

In consultation with Medlink (& Swire), said manager was pronounced obviously insane and immediately sedated & restrained.

Expect a statement from CX shortly apologizing to the Shareholders and stating that an immediate reeducation program will be introduced.

Smile Superfrozo

Apparently as they slipped the straight jacket on him, said Manager was shouting;

"Don't forget Paris, We apologise to the families, we apologise to the French people for attempting to defraud them, don't forget Paris....

And then just as the ballgag went in to shut him up he was heard to say...

"It's true, Nick and Sten did commit per...." alas the final word was never completed and we will never know what he was going say

Next to which door is the Ballgag located? I've heard rumours of a gimp mask next to the restraints but still haven't found it.

Yonosoy : Spilled me tea all over the keyboard ! Excellent. Now this is what makes PPrune such a delight. Amongst all the serious stuff, occasionally, a hellava good giggle. Priceless !
