Cathay captain gets canned for low-pass caught on camera



The captain of a brand new Cathay Pacific 777-300ER is looking for a new job now after making a low-pass of the Boeing Everett Plant on departure for the delivery flight back to Hong Kong. I believe this happened about Janurary 30th. Video has now been leaked of the low-pass with some estimates placing the aircraft as low as 28 feet AGL. Apparently the chairman of the airline was on board at the time. Word-to-the-wise, don't do stupid stuff with your boss in the back seat.
