Professional (allegedly) pilot, amateur dad and proficient grumpy old man. Living the dream, flying the flag.

[BALPA @BALPApilots]

🌍Pilots all around the world are supporting BALPA members in Bristow Helicopters who have been striking this week.

We've received an incredible message of solidarity from attendees of the IFALPA conference, including BALPA Exec. Pres. @Pablodeux and Gen. Sec. @Amy_Leversidge✊

[BALPA @BALPApilots]

Join us in celebrating #WorldPilotsDay! 🌍

Today, we honor the incredible contributions of pilots worldwide, and continue to affirm that #SafetyStartsWith2.

Say NO to RCO. Saftey, Strength, Unity.✈️

[IALPA @IALPA]

Happy World Pilots Day!

Every aspect of a flight, from procedures to operations, is designed for 2 pilots.
Removing one pilot completely upends the entire system.

Remember, #SafetyStartsWith2 #AviationSafety #WorldPilotsDay #Pilots

[IFALPA @IFALPA]

Today marks #WorldPilotsDay & The Global Voice of Pilots joins with @ALPAPilots & @eu_cockpit & pilots around the world underscore the need to maintain two pilots on the flight deck at all times #SafetyStartsWith2.

[BALPA @BALPApilots]

BALPA has given notice to Bristow Helicopters that it will call on its members to strike in March.

Bristow has failed to put forward any offer that its pilots and tech crew could support.

@scott_mills “Have you ever had any near misses”or “Have you ever nearly crashed” then the old favourite “but you don’t actually fly the plane the autopilot does everything”
Oh and everyone asks if you know Captain Dave @DaveWallsworth

@daraobriain One day arranging a flight to spend 6 days in Vancouver? Sorry that’s probably mean and not very helpful. Dons coat and leaves.

@NoContextBrits Do people live north of Watford? In actual houses?

@RealMattLucas Congratulations #babyshower

[Paul Copland @Pablodeux]

@JensonButton great commentary and great birthday call out for DC. Can you let him know the 80s called and they want their white trousers and espadrilles back? I mean I’m a Scotsman of a similar age and have gracefully accepted elasticated trousers and Crocs. #happybirthdayDC

[Paul Copland @Pablodeux]

@katyperry Thank you. Would do it all again tomorrow if I didn’t have to drive back home to London overnight! Anyone else in Sin City buy a damn ticket and don’t miss #Play. Simply marvellous and spectacular.

@BlenheimHorse Still here. Plan A was breakfast atvyhe event. PlanB of lunch seemed solid. Plan C if afternoon tea now being formed.

@BlenheimHorse I feel sorry for the farmers guide being fertilised constantly opposite the airport. But if you have people gridlocked for over 2 hours then I suppose (SH) it happens.
