Never used this airline and after today's news never will after their pilot lost his false arm on final approach!

More fool you. It's perfectly possible to fly a plane with one arm, otherwise he wouldn't have passed his ATPL. Moreover he must be bloody good to pass his skills test when examiners would probably have been scrutinising him more carefully than other candidates. After that he would then have had to pass another test to be taken on by the airline themselves, and then he would have to have passed a type rating for the specific aeroplane.

I bet he only wears a prosthetic so as to not scare the passengers.
 
Flew with them down to Cornwall (and back to London) a few years ago.No particular complaints, though I was suprised to find that the space for hand luggage lockers was not as large as on Easyjet and RyanAir flights.Always thought that sort of thing was an airline standard.
