B.A the question!

[Linton]

A number of years ago I was banned from taking my wife on the spare seat in the cockpit.I have been married to her for almost 17 years and trust her implicitly-she owns all our assets for tax avoidance!!Yet some civil servant banned me and my colleagues from allowing this practice as it is a security risk.
Some of the lo-co's do not provide food or drink to their crews gratis so they bring their own.The new rules stopped this for many meal choices-have you ever heard of an explosive chicken tika?They also stopped pilots taking contact lens fluid and a whole list of other items.
So if you see a pilot in his nhs glasses who hasn't been allowed to carry his deodorant,tooth paste etc and has been living on ready made sandwiches for a few days please excuse his appearance and remember the person who made these rules in the first place!!
I and many others could fill pages on this and if you look at prune you will find pilots making the point more eloquently than I.
I am sure there are a number of airline people who would love to meet the rectum that wrote the rules.I have asked the wife for new work socks for christmas as everybody gets to see them when i walk shoeless through security!
I forgot to add that every airliner has a foot long axe that is kept in the cockpit-perhaps the civil servant would like a demonstration of how sharp it is!!
