Today I woke at a reasonable hour considering I hadn't set an alarm. A slow Saturday morning breakfast and then it was back to the books to get ahead for the weekend. Having done a few hours whilst checking facebook and sending texts, etc; I felt good about the weekend.
An article which seems to have been circulated a great deal amongst my colleagues is the following; give it a read.
Cockpit Politics
It seems as though they got off lightly by only missing the airport by 150nm. During the presentations given yesterday we were told of a Thai Air flight to Kathmandu which crashed due to a number of reasons, of which poor communication between the flight crew and a hightened level of tension was a contributing factor. It is worrying to think of how something like this can cause an accident like this..!!
Seems like political discussion is not one for the cockpit..!
This evening there is the "Annual Student Awards/Graduation Ceremony & Gala Ball" to be held in a giant Marquee at the Airport. It should prove to be a great night with plenty to drink and plenty of people. The guest of Honour is none other than CEO of British Airways, Mr Willie Walsh.
It would be especially amusing if there were challenges amonst us cadets such as pennying Willie's wine glass and make him down his wine.
Right, now for an afternoon of work to offset the debauchery the will follow..
