Asmartins,a couple of questions for you if you dont mind.You may not be able to answer them now but if you happen upon any info in the next couple of days,holla.


Firstly,what happened to the 136 passengers booted off? were they re-booked for a different BA flight?


Secondly,what kind of disciplinary action were the pilot and co-pilot subject to after this mass booting off.


I ask that second question coz I know pilots are subject to all kinds of fines up to £10,000 sometimes,which comes out of their own pockets,I only highlight this to say that a SERIOUS ruckus must have kicked off on that plane for the pilot to take that step,because he will now have to go in front of a board/panel etc,etc to explain his actions and knowing the grief that entails,I cant imagine he/she would have made that decision lightly.

And I am toally not being CRACKER ADVOCATE here but there is a certain amount of discipline that one must adhere to on a plane,this is not National Express or Greyhound bizznizz.Sometimes peeps and I mean peeps of all races get on a plane and swear they are in their effing living room,that shit aint on,ya feel me?

Have you ever been on a plane when its already airbourne and a fight has kicked off?? My Mum experienced that and she said it was of the scariest experiences of her life...this way before 9/11,,,this was like late 70's.

From the evidence presented I would say your cousin does deserve compensation,however if and it's a big IF coz I dont know for sure,only know what I have read,but IF mofo's are acting the fool on that route BA probably would be glad to be rid of those passengers,even if they lose 5 mill a year!


I aint asking for nothing,just open the door and i\'ll take it myself-James Brown.
