Ex QR F/O in jail in Sri Lanka
 
Looks like an ex-Qatar Airways FO was arrested for supplying false documents, allowing him to get a job flying as a Captain at Sri Lankan!
If rumors are true, it was the same one who used to walk around with 3 bar epaulettes in his shirt pocket, claimed to fly for the German Air Force and had tea with the Amir for being the first expat to buy land at West Bay.

'Fake' airline pilot held over false papers

I flew with G.B. before he left. Huge ego, small skills and smaller personality.
I believe we have had a few cases in the past and looking at the amount of people that will be required in the future I am sure we will get a few more.
I hope this is a lesson for QR to do background checks on all of our new hires before they start flying! And if any have falsified their details then Qatar Airways should follow what the Sri Lankan’s did and hand them over to the police!

If it was him, then I am not surprised.
Just happy that nothing bad happened before he was found out.

There is a thread already started on the Rumours & News forum.

The Famous.."call me G.B.A." sorry CPT GBA....! Indeed if true thats a new experience for him..he spent already a few days in jail in Qatar(car accident under the influence of alcohol), now in sri lanka,this time he might stay a little bit longer.

One of the recruiters here told me that they regularly find fakes applying for jobs.

Southpole 22nd May 2015 16:07

Are you guys talking about a 7 years old story or you know he came back again?

too_much 22nd May 2015 16:33

I can't say I blame Sri Lanken for this incident

Pilots have a duty of care to be honest about there credentials...

How would he feel if a surgeon lied about his experince just before he is about to carry out open heart surgery on you?

Honesty is the best policy.
