Dhaka brawl (EK vs. GF Pilots)
 
How true is this? Anyone knows what happened and what caused this? A source told me that the EK pilot/s got a black eye and was rushed to a hospital. Will the pilots be suspended? Did EK office recieved the incident report from the hotel?:ouch:

neilb767 17th Feb 2007 17:24

Old news, happened a while back.

At last count GF 1 , EK 0 :}

Oh by the way , im totally impartial. :ok:

BYMONEK 17th Feb 2007 18:53

Also being impartial, just wondering what's with the 'attitude' of some of the GA crews staying there. Although not a witness to either event, i've had on two occassions now, negative feedback from my crew regarding behaviour and racist comments directed to individuals. The first involved fowl language and insults from two very drunk GA girls towards two EK hosties. The most recent involved a male Cabin Crew member who was subjected to a volley of verbal and racial abuse by the two GA Flight Crew. One was of Easten European origin ( He thinks Romanian) and the other local. The only 'crime' committed by the Emirates crew member was unknowingly use the crew room computer ahead of the guys who were waiting in the adjacent room watching a movie. This incident occurred towards the end of last month but the crew member was too afraid to make an official complaint. He was quite visible upset by the confrontation and to say the least, surprised it came from fellow aviators.

Not sure what the problem is guys but as they used to say in my school........." grow up and act your age, NOT your shoe size!" :=

Guess that EK guy learned the hard way you cant go around hitting people in the fist with your eye:ok: :}

Hey BYMONEK, what about "what's wrong with the EK crews?" instead of your unfounded GF crew bashing. The EK crew was 100% wrong and asked himself to get his ass kicked by the GF crew (a true gentleman in my book).

happy new year of the golden pig

Well, BYMONEK, I suppose someone has to say it so it might as well be me

Are you using "fowl" language if you call someone "chicken"?

BYMONEK 18th Feb 2007 11:03

Pontius's pa

Dohh! That's what you get for letting the 'emocions' run away! Well spotted. :D

yo 767

I'm only basing my comments from 2 actual reports from people who experienced it first hand. Perhaps it was wrong to word it like that as I know, and have met many guys from Gulf Air who are great guys which is why i'm surprised and asked the question. The two guys involved in the verbal abuse attack are giving the rest of your crews a bad name. Much the same way it will be for the Ek guy if it was indeed his fault. There a bad eggs everywhere and we have some too. :ok:

The GF cpt was having a good time with everybody. (GF and EK crew.)
The disgruntled EK FO came up to him and started to talk trash to him.
Apparently the EK FO was not having a good day.
The GF cpt ignored him, then proceeded to the restroom to relieve his bladder. The EK FO followed him to the lew and decided to slap him in the back of the head while he was urinating := .
The GF cpt did what he had to do.
That is the story from the GF side.
Kudos to Gf cpt.:D

PITA 18th Feb 2007 19:01

He's lucky he did'nt lose a few teeth.
Some people are just not too smart, if said story is correct.

REACH-69 18th Feb 2007 21:11

100% support to the GF lads.........Well done mate:D

Alpha 6 19th Feb 2007 06:30

GF guys have spoken....now anyone from the EK side?

allaru 19th Feb 2007 08:16

Didnt here about it, sure it was a cat fight between a couple of cabin boys slapping, nail gouging, and pulling hair.

atiuta 19th Feb 2007 08:36

This sounds remarkably similar to the 2 QF girls fighting 2 EK girls in SYD, all for the attention of some EK pilots. Not a problem that GF appear to have.

Don't you just hate that?

I believe the original story (DAC) flew under the radar, lets keep it that way.

config-2 20th Feb 2007 11:15

Now that is one I wouldn't have minded seeing!! I love a good catfight- really brightens up the day :D

Wasn't the EK crew's wake up call a few hours after the brawl? That's why the F/O was happy to just get off with a shiner.

Wasn't the EK crew's wake up call a few hours after the brawl?
Really??? I heard they were drinking when the brawl happened...Don't tell me the crew were still under the influence of alcohol, with more than .04% in their blood, when they signed in for duty?!? That's against the UAE GCAA Law right? tsk tsk tsk:=

Support
 
I support Gulf Air and the Blue Bulls!

EK seem like a bunch of whiners, but I shouldnt generalize because most of the whiners that I have met are :ooh: ozzies:ooh: ...................;)

gimmesumvalium 1st Mar 2007 19:13

Hey all, let's not forget we are all living in the same pile of camel dung, and the people s******g us (the REAL enemy) are the management. Stay focused!
