Being rude, arrogant, entitled, dislikeable, etc. are not attractive traits. But neither are they crimes.

Anyhow, an interesting discussion, but one I shall exit now!

Safe and happy flying all!

Actually, swearing at crew (threatening, abusive or insulting words….) is an offence/crime. I’m not 100% sure which Act but I want to say Air Navigation Order (it’s been some years since I learnt it). Summary only I think but you can be removed by police from the plane (and that’s another offence if you don’t).

The armed bit is neither here nor there - Heathrow (uniformed) police are armed and have been for some time.

I think I’ve worked it out! Have you ever tried to cook a hotdog on a plane? (In Club?)
