A pilot's life: farewell to romance

So its not all 'Mills and Boon'

Given this comment in another thead

quote: The captain gets paid enough and should have taken the initative and responsibility to ensure that arrangements were in place before swanning off.

this article definitly puts that comment into perspective.

Not sure the article refers to the 'worlds favourite' pilots (or even cabin crew)!!!!!

I've just read 'Sully' Sullenbergers book and it's clear that he has tried to use his new found fame to highlight issues such as this.

Max respect to him for that.
