It does have a delightfully Irish air to it.

I love the bit about having almost another two pints before deciding to fly home.

Two's in

Well at least the "you'd have to be drunk or stupid to fly like that" conundrum has two possible outcomes...

I cant see 2 pints and a shandy having any effect on your flying .....either it was a lot more than that or he is just a crap pilot !!
I just presume he was flying a Robinson .....??!!

There are people I know , non pilots i would not let drive having consumed a Shandy and two pints. But I suspect the almost two pints is Irish for six.

Exercise 28 Irish ppl, autorotation with a pint in one hand and a sandwich on your lap.

Before I take any heat, I would like to point out I'm Irish.
