Me say it was a very brave demonstration. Me think he may have give himself some type of retraining. 10 sectors or something similiar.:=:=

He was too high for a flyby. You could barely see the aircraft or hear the people cheer. 10 ft lower would have been much better.

I am very suprised CX where able to pull the videos from youtube. I wonder how much that cost.

Cheers, Smithy:=:=:=

result of enquiry
 

I have just been informed that the Capt has been asked to submit his resignation and the FO (another check capt) has been returned to The Line for 6 months.

Almost like 10 sectors of line training.

Stagecoach Driver,

Is that resignation from the Company full stop or just from the role of B777 CP?

Still on the net - just need to know where to look for 'em :}

Latest Notice To Crew re The Flypast
 

Edit: paste from NTC deleted after due deliberation - we've all read it anyway I guess...

A bit harsh I think.:sad:

Two weeks ago NR thought it a great flypast and included 2 photos in the Friday report, now they sack the CP.:D

A sad day for the 777 fleet.:sad:


I'll bet Kim Jong Phil did the honors, and probably loved doing it too.:=

Let's hope they pay off the PF enough compensation along with his termination so he isn't tempted to exercise the legal avenues of appeal.

Now, that could open up a real can of worms...

For his circus stunt flyby at least Maverick was promised a job flying Cargo planes full of rubber dogsh@t out of Hong Kong.

It seems no such luck for our former B777 CP.

He probably was offered it but balked at the Ts & Cs :}

Nice place to work...?????

If so sack NR & Kim .. phil aswell
 

Harsh for a decent CP - thought he did not follow procedures :hmm: correctly (anyway we don't know all facts yet) etc..

So in media & public light & setting an exsample etc Gone..

On that point why not sack NR & PW since they are up to no good in contributions to maximise the growth of this airline for our & shareholders interests.

So many lost opportunities so little time..

Life sucks .. Where is my top train set. :{

That's a bummer.

Bit faster and a bit higher still looks more spec. Those huge 777 donks would have sounded great at full song.

Few Kiwi cowboys...

Are you kidding me!?! He was sacked for a flyby?!? Tell me there was something else to this story. Because if that is the only reason....

Now thats a GOOD fly-by. Clean and hot. As the Baron said "speed and altitude are your friend".

:hmm: Does anyone have a link to the video? It seems to have disappeared from youtube.

The youtube video has been removed. Must have cost a pretty penny for CX to do that...............:=
