Even in a brightly coloured life raft they would have been nigh on impossible to see from the bridge of a ship at night.
From experience we know McKay is a **** but in this case we don’t know anything about his involvement and in which case it is wrong to implicate him or imply he is at fault.
Totally agree with this. So, so unecessary mode of transport.
Yeah on Flybe used to comeback on the same flight as him on a Sunday morning, he used to have a Flybe plane named after him don’t know if he still has though
He did.
I said the same today
At night, over a sizable body of water, the risk is multiplied.
In the summer of 1994 I was working in the Dominican Republic and had to fly from Punta Cana to Santo Domingo to attend a meeting. I refused to fly in the single engined plane provided insisting on a twin engine plane. I attended the meeting and there was a terrible rain deluge. I eventually got the airport for the return journey to be told my flight was delayed. I asked how long before the runway was usable but was told that was not the reason. My pilot had suffered a heart attack and was in intensive care. It was ok as they had searched his clothes and found the keys and a new pilot was taking me back. Absolutely true.
Agreed
I'm sorry astral, but pointing out the risks could help someone else to mitigate them. The company I work for fly employees all over the world and there are specific rules when traveling on company business. Commercial airlines where ever possible, even some airlines are banned, those with poor safety records.
