William Chandler was recently forced to resign after the airline said he had been flying without the proper documentation.Police said Chandler was charged with forgery.South African Airways has said Chandler claimed to possess an Airline Transport Pilot License — an advanced licence permitting him to fly large passenger planes.
But he only had a commercial pilot license, which is for small aircraft and requires far less training and experience. SAA has not revealed how long he had flown under false pretences, the number of passengers he flew or the types of aircraft he had piloted.SAA has said the falsehood came to light last November when an Airbus A340-600 plane he was co-piloting to Germany encountered turbulence and he had to perform a recovery manoeuvre.
The crew were grounded and evaluated in line with safety procedures, and at that point the subterfuge was discovered, the airline said.This entry was posted on 11 Mar 2019,09:52PM at 9:52 PM and is filed under
Dudu myeni exposed them.. Now is the time
How do we refer to him as a pilot when he has fake qualifications 🤔
Why it took so long discover that, something fishy is happening here.
They should arrest the additional 3 which was found with no licenses.
It’s fait a compli now , he was supposed to have been arrested during the time when he was still operating!
