All our flights are non-smoking flights. Smoking is prohibited in all areas of the aircraft.

heh heh

Reminds me of one of the textbooks used in a Logic course I had many years ago. On the cover is a photo of some people having a picnic in a city park. There's an official sign saying 'No cars or trucks OF ANY KIND allowed in park'. Parked right behind the sign is ... you guessed it ... a police car.



It also brings to mind Lewis Carroll's Through the Looking Glass:

'When I use a word,' Humpty Dumpty said in rather a scornful tone, 'it means just what I choose it to mean—neither more nor less.'

cheers,

Does anyone know if CA still allow their pilots to smoke in the cockpit?
