A US judge says a commercial helicopter pilot videotaped in a sex act while flying over San Diego committed gross negligence and cannot have his licence back.
National Transportation Safety Board administrative law Judge William R. Mullins upheld a Federal Aviation Administration order revoking the licence of David Martz after a hearing on Tuesday.
A passenger was videotaping when Martz let an adult film actress perform a sex act on him during the 2005 flight, and an edited version eventually became public.
The judge watched the unedited tape in chambers and took testimony before his decision.

Helicopter training manual, page 12, paragraph 4, sub-section iv states that one should…
Gently but firmly grasp the cyclic…
How can that possibly be misconstrued? Surely grasping the cyclic and jiggling it about a bit is covered under advanced manouvering?

I wonder what the judge was up to whilst viewing…
What he was ‘up’ to? I don’t even want to think about it!
It has to be said, this takes aircraft porn to a whole new level! 😀
