Pilots in court over 'sex tape'
Homonculus - with your immaculate medical credentials, I for one would never question your concern for the impact of the medical predicament on flight safety. In fact I applaud your (the medical world) attitude towards Safety Management.
But 'normally' the lads (HEMS/AA pilots in UK - unlike some other countries) don't tend to bog down under this type of external influence, I would suggest.
I remember once going to a job where mum, dad and baby boy (18 months old) were on holiday in the middle of no-where and dad was carrying the little lad around on his shoulders - they were staying in a quaint old cottage with hanging beams and dad forgot! The child head butted one of the beams and stopped breathing. Dad did CPR until we arrived with the paramedic who told us we had to go to the childrens hospital much further away rather than the local one due to complications.
The cops had a very difficult job peeling the mother off the airframe because I simply couldn't take this very seriously ill child's mother with us because of payload issues. The paramedic was looking at me and his watch all the time but never once got emotional.
Pressure is there but we learn to live with it.
Meanwhile back to topic: I see today that Pogmore got a jail sentence.
So for the record - The crew didn't get off. One of them went down for it.

It ain’t over yet...
A police helicopter crew filmed a couple having sex on their patio and a mum sunbathing naked with her two bikini-clad teenage daughters when they were supposed to be fighting crime, a misconduct hearing has heard.
PC Matthew Lucas, 43, a serving officer with South Yorkshire Police, and former officer Lee Walls, 48, are accused of making illegal recordings between 2007 and 2012.
Although both men were acquitted in court for misconduct charges in 2017, they now face fresh scrutiny after it was claimed their original interviews were untruthful.

NAPS in The Sun and other press today.
Noticed in todays hard copy of The Sun that a member of the NPAS management team was giving evidence at a disciplinary hearing.
Couldn't find the sun link web link but its also in this paper online. Its expected to last 7 days. Wonder who's paying the legal bill?
