When confronted discreetly about it, the pilot was nonchalant. He has
a career ahead of him, and a family, with two young children. Because of
his poor judgment, and even more because of his flippant attitude, some
people who know about this want to make a full-blown incident out of it.
Others feel it would damage or destroy his career - and we "hope" he has
learned his lesson.

In the UK we have the Confidential Human Factors Incident Reporting
Programme (http://www.chirp.co.uk/new/default.htm). Do you have the same in
your part of the world? This is an excellent service which allows incidents
such as this to be reported in a way which is confidential but which will
promote awareness of the issue through the publication, in anonymous form,
of the details of the incident.
