A British Airways pilot has been fired after snorting cocaine from a woman’s breasts shortly before a plane he was supposed to co-pilot took off. The flight was scheduled to fly from Johannesburg to London, according to ‘The Sun’ newspaper. The man, named Mike Beaton, told a flight attendant friend of his what he had just done and the woman reported him to her boss, who canceled the flight and, after taking a drug test that came back positive, fired him.
The cancellation of the flight, which lasts 12 hours, cost the airline £100,000, which is equivalent to about €114,000.
As Beaton told her flight attendant friend in text messages, during her night off she met two young men at a Johannesburg nightclub and ended up at one of them’s apartment. In the text messages the man claimed that he had been a “very naughty” boy. According to ‘The Sun’, there were women who danced topless and cocaine at the party. “This is the story of how I ended up snorting cocaine on the chest of a girl from Johannesburg,” she admitted.
According to an anonymous source, the pilots receive “rigorous training and know the law inside out” because their mission is to “protect the safety of passengers”, a mission that is far from the attitude of this man. a few hours before co-piloting a plane.
