Demotion
It is with considerable regret that I have to announce the demotion of 500N from Chief Pilot to Snr First Officer after he successfully turned the simulater into a smoking wreck. Please note: All simulator assessments will now be postponed for the immediate future. Thank You
See the mess below after he attempted to reverse into a parking space. This occurring before he was even half way through his assessment.

Is he the one without the safety vest? Figures...
Because they stand on the wall and say "nothing's gonna hurt you tonight, not on my watch".

Because you and I have a similar (warped ) sense of humour based on backgrounds ?

500N; You should have taken lessons from any Talair Pilot of the 90's.
They could reverse park Twin Otters and Bandits quite easily. Used to see them do it nearly every night!
Always wished we could do the same with the 'brumm brumm's.' (Known these days as Bongo vans!)

Maybe I should learn to fly first before I try to reverse park an aircraft

'To be sure and that might be a good idea!'
As an old Irish Mate of mine would possibly put it!

Re: Demotion
First day at the airline, 20 chaps, chief pilot gives us an introductory presentation with his flies open. 50% ex Royal Air Force, as indeed he was, who found it difficult to call him by his Christian name as invited. We were not prepared to tell him. A guy who had mortgaged his house and wife to get himself that far did at the coffee break. Was this a test?

Re: Demotion
at least he ensured the airline logo was unrecognisable

And he provided valuable test data which will be used to promulgate future efficiencies that may result in the saving of the planet. Pardon me while I succumb to tears.
