That cartoon is unfair and inaccurate, pilots also have to go through airport security. Tom Scott should be taken to task over that, it portrays a poor message to the uninformed public.

Not sure if you got the meaning of that cartoon Dave . I think the guy sitting in the chair is a Psychiatrist , so whilst the passengers are getting their luggage checked - the pilots are getting their " heads " checked . Very poor taste at this stage of the saga in my my opinion .

Dave, if you only knew….there are plenty involved in aviation who should be seeking professional help..fortunately most of us use socially acceptable methods to sooth the angry voices...

Maybe so but I still think that cartoon is in bad taste.

Dave, if you only knew….there are plenty involved in aviation who should be seeking professional help..fortunately most of us use socially acceptable methods to sooth the angry voices... We often used to joke that you have to be mad (and perhaps mentally-unstable) to do the job I do, what with all the unsocial hours and other stuff. Then, several years ago, I can remember a report into CityRail Sydney coming out where it was claimed that around 5% of all the train drivers in the Sydney system had mental health issues. On this side of the ditch, we all pissed ourselves laughing, because it merely confirmed our in-house joke to be true (and as an aside it meant we could take the piss out of Ocker train drivers).

That actually makes more sense, I wasn't giving the BBC credit for figuring out who really leads a MPA mission Sent via Proboards Android App

News just announced on Al Jazeera a few minutes ago, reports are coming in from a Chinese search aircraft, its aircrew have spotted "suspicious objects" in the water during a search. Let's hope this is it folks.
