To remain in their bases, pilots had to end their contracts and become ‘self-employed’. Or as Peter Bellew suggested: crew could transfer to the new Polish contracts, move to another base in Romania or Morocco, or “we will have no jobs for them in Poland”.
Laser strikes against #aircraft in the U.S. are up this year. Pointing a laser at an airplane is a serious #safety risk and can temporarily blind a #pilot. Violators can serve jail time and pay hefty fines. Get more information at https://t.co/88DqZ5RzDy. #LosetheLaser#FBI
Cabin air contamination is a known problem that can cause serious short- and long-term health effects, which may compromise flight safety.

Do people really think this pilot did this on purpose i.e. causing a major crash and killing himself?! Getting rid of the bad apples does not solve the systemic causes. We have to understand why this happened. Blaming doesn't solve a thing. #justculture https://t.co/dSfePaSfpn
Ali Bahrami (FAA) "Safety doesn't care about geographical boundaries. We all want to leave a legacy and what better way to do it by improving safety" @FAANEWS@EASA@Eurocockpit#EASAFAA
@patrickky "We are gathered here with a single objective: improving aviation safety!" Indeed, the only way is working together. There is no competition in safety. @EASA@FAANews@eurocockpit#EASAFAA
Let's see if the authorities will obtain new tools to carry out effective oversight and not just check regulatory compliance with often insufficient resources #easafaa
Sure it is an advertisement, but there is quite a lot of truth in this. Have a look at my article on "People are safety" and combine it with an "Everyone Culture" proposed by Robert Kegan... #safety#humanisticsystems https://t.co/jkOHDiZRgB
Presentation of Delegated Act on #drones in the @EP_Transport@EASA We need remote pilot license & geo-awareness requirements asap + in-depth education of all enforcement bodies @eu_cockpit
When pilots hear another drone industry lobbyist telling us we should not worry: “Airliners manage with birds and there are way more of them than there are drones, so none of the above is necessary!” please forgive us if we shake our heads with frustration https://t.co/IZrnCczEVv
Excellent and seemingly objective BBC podcast which gives a good overview of the background and more recent developments on the issue of Cabin Air Quality. As BeCA co-ordinator I am convinced that a standardised medical protocol is…https://t.co/ruvIrRSolj https://t.co/L4bcdJdkcC
