The best part, in the German papers the police are quoted as saying they are trying to work out if he was speeding or not ::)
However he has been charged with vehicular assault of his girlfriend 8-)

1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.

They're Germans. It's in their DNA makeup to do things like that. On some things I admit is a VERY good thing and a lot of people (especially from MY country) should learn from them, on other things though... :P

One of these days some group of experts of theirs, I'm sure, will try to work out exactly how REALLY hard is the ground when you fall on your butt when you're drunk... and all that because they're Germans. ;D


PS
By the way, the title of the thread is slightly wrong. Should have appended: "for at least three reincarnations". ;) :D
