How long before some Big-Media propagandized dunce blames this on Boeing?

Well, it certainly wasn't an Airbus. Or a Tupelov, for that matter.

Did he have the steak or the fish?

He had the 'needle-fish'.

From the article:

The aircraft involved, one of the carrier’s 43-strong fleet of Boeing 777-200ERs registered G-VIIP remained on the ground in St. John’s for about 36 hours before continuing to Gatwick on March 16, 2024, taking four hours and 18 minutes to return to its base airport. The aircraft has since completed rotations from Gatwick to Tampa (TPA), Bridgetown (BGI), and Orlando (MCO.

Its base airport is Gatwick. I'm sure you know where that is.

No, there are no "holes in the official story". The aircraft being a Boeing product has nothing to do with the pilot falling ill.

I'm not going to flame you for your comments (this time), but I will note that you deserve a thorough flaming for them.

The plane stayed on the ground for 36 hours. The passengers “were rescued by another of the airline’s Boeing 777s”.

“Rescued” ... nice bit of sensationalism, there. Some people easily fall for it.

Meanwhile, continuing the flight to England requires a full, properly rested crew.

But noooo ... it can’t be something simple like that. It has to be “Boeing Bad” ... because Big Media told me so.

He had whatever was deemed safe and effective and required for further employment. That’s what pisses me off. They forced a medication that was tested for 6-9 months. FORCED.
