Aer Lingus Pilot Suspended For Landing In Reverse

AER LINGUS have ordered all pilots to undergo retraining on health and safety in the aviation industry after one pilot was suspended for landing in reverse.

“An idiot trying to show off to his friends,” explained an Aer Lingus spokesperson, describing the actions of the pilot of the 11.30am EI165 flight from Heathrow into Dublin.

Pilot Frank Neville has been suspended pending a review after plane spotters recorded footage of Neville flying passengers into Dublin tail end first, in a brazen act of irresponsible piloting.

“We don’t have the full details but we believe Frank, a veteran of 30 years, was trying to impress a younger pilot and made a bet that he could do it,” explained Aer Lingus.

While no passenger was injured during the risky maneuver, breaking from accepted landing procedures could have ended in tragedy.

And unrepentant Neville, speaking to WWN, appealed to anyone with footage to send it directly to him as ‘it probably looked cool as fuck’.

Elsewhere, Ryanair are to take no action after a pilot landed one of their planes like it owed him money.
