I picked the wrong week to quit sniffing glue...
Death by Fauci - shame on those who continue to push experimental injections - whatever happened to medical ethics?
The NTSB would find one damn dull CVR.
Heart attack?
The JAB strikes again.
Then Karen Black would have to land the plane.
You may be right he’s not the first.
LOLOLOL, unfortunately, I’ve been sober so many years now that I haven’t been in a nightclub in ages.
Recently boosted?
That's an interesting question. pfflier, any info on that? Wee-wee jar in the cockpit?
At the time this occurred the plane was on climbout after takeoff. No one is in the bathroom.
In that type of cummuter jet the flight duration is short. Their mothers were probably like mine, "Go before you go". The pilots are pretty tightly packed in the cockpit and getting up would be an extreme exercise in body flexibility if both seats are in the pilot's flight position.
It was not unheard of for an aircrew member to find an alternate use for a coffee cup or, in the good old days, a thermos though. What goes on in there stays in there.
On longer range flights the plane is almost always on autopilot (flight control system) which would stabilize the heading and altitude while auto throttle would control the airspeed. On those types of flights the rule for most airlines is two in the cockpit at all times although a monitor may be non-rated, ie any member of the crew.
There is the hypothetical answer to the hypothetical question.
Thank you. It's reassuring!
