A pilot flew from Surrey to Anglesey on the Spring Bank Holiday"to go to the beach", a report has revealed.It was closed for maintenance work and security staff believed he had made an emergency landing.Defence Aviation Safety Occurrence ReportWhen told about lockdown and coronavirus restrictions in Wales, he is reported to have told them"it was okay, because he had [the virus] two months ago".
He told them he found the airfield on Google Earth and decided to land there as Wikipedia said it served civilian traffic. He left shortly after landing.
How can I contact if it's scholarship
Complete social distancing so what’s the issue. This is now normal till a vaccine is in use in the community. Is this just a twitter prompt to generate outrage well I’m not biting
Wonder if they were caught speeding - interesting conversation with commanding officer - “what the hell do you think youre doing” “well sir we were Cummings around to tell you” we were going to fly to Scotland 🏴
He should be fined 😠

More like 'Pilot did a Cummings'!
Nothing wrong in it... If Dom can do it so does he! So leave him alone
So what?
And what ?
Well at least they didn't have to stop for petrol, Mind I wouldn't like to be in there shows buy time CAA have finished with them they wont be allowed to fly anything accept a kite in the future, and landing at a RAF station we closed runway, there going to be a big fine to
And? Social distancing at it's best. You really are getting boring and repetitive now
So what? David Shukman does it all the time.
Some have been driving
100% instinct, I can't see anything wrong here
Anybody think this woman could be responsible for encouraging his behaviour?
And no toilet break on the way.
The second Cummings.
Take his pilot's license off him, simple.
Probably a friend of boris
Hope he had a short flight beforehand to test his eyesight CummingsTheVirusSpreader
Go for it 🌞
Why not? Dominic Cummings drove 260 miles and nobody in governmenttno8ght that was wrong.
Seriously he was bang out of order and those who can’t see the difference between him going to a beach and Cummings trying to keep his child safe are as brain dead as him, but shows the times we live in nobody thinks for themselves anymore idiots
Yawn zzzz
That bloody Cummings guy!!! 😂
It's allowed! And no need to spread the virus at petrol stations along the route!
It makes more sense than driving - being a pilot he’d of had good eyesight though
And how come we're seeing so many cars and vans with British reg. plates here in S.W Ireland? Your reckless re-opening of shops and schools next week is crazy so stay away from us in the Republic. Our schools aren't re-opening until the end of August, which is far wiser.
So how is he coping with his 14 day full isolation?
Is it not still true that if you have a private pilot’s license you have to do a certain number of hours of flying each month or you loose it?
Cummings?
The Cummings effect.
He was using his integrity
More rich people who rules don't apply too. Or just do as they wish
Well..from my reading it has little to do with lockdown. Finding the airfield on Google maps . Wikipedia says it takes civilian traffic, airfield closed she he landed. My main question would be how someone this dumb is actually allowed to put an aircraft in the air
Click bate bbc shit sturing.also nothing wrong with it beats the bus
Good for them
And Was probably a test flight. Get CUMXIT done!
Hope he kept at a social distance might have broke lock down rules
He has confirmed his eyesight is in fact ok. Never mind that he was aiming for Heathrow.
Clearly some haven't read the article, for those saying 'So?' & 'And?' - The matter is that they landed the aircraft at a RAF site without permission.
Meh, Cummings can get away with it
hatersgonnahate
100 miles less than Kinnock drive for his family tea party and yet Starmer promoted him
Uch he was probs just checking his eyesight 🤪
Is that even against the rules now?
No problem: probably just ‘instinct’, which boristhebutcher says is fine.
Instinct?
Impound his toy
Wasn’t to test his eyesight was it? Still less than Cummings !!!!!!
He was testing his eyes
If you can’t drive you fly 😂🤦🏻♂️
What a cretin.
I smell something a little off with this 🤔🤥🤥 This sounds a little staged .. not just that but aren't wales still in lockdown so technically that's breaking the law in Wales ? So its probably safe to say the media are just winding up the public yet again
As you do...........
which is totally fine now, as we're allowed to travel unlimited distance for unlimited exercise and sunbathing, and have been for weeks?
It's ok. He was doing an eye test
Pilot Cummings you are free to land
This is crazy lol 😂😂😂
Don’t worry about it Dominic Cummings drove 260 miles to stay with his family and take his wife out for her birthday
And what’s wrong with this?
Opticians are closed. How else could his test his eyesight?
martynparker God i hope he's not a politician or adviser, sick to death of hearing about the last one
A second peak is inevitable now
Lucky guy!! At least he wasnt testing his eyesight. 🤣🤣🤣
Who cares?
Unfortunately this pilot did not hve his 4 year old child & wife on board so clearly he violated rules.....🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
In a jet? 🤔
Not that I really approve, but the rules ARE different now. Cummings is just a lying, manipulative ******
amazing !
Dodgy eyes?
Aren't pilots required to submit a flight plan before flying anywhere?
He needed to test his eyesight for the longer flight tomorrow to Dubai. It’s allowed
He must be working with the current government
Covid is an attempt to reset the World back to the begining of 1900s; Rich will enjoy the wonders of the world, Poor will be lucky if they have bread! No more cheap flight weekend breaks! We will either be rich or poor, master or slave, alive or dead! ThisGovIsAmericanSpy
So what, perfectly legal.
Was it the PM’s pilot 😄
Can we not shoot them down
Lad
He is called Cummings by any chance? The rules don’t apply to the wealthy ruling class.
Was it Cummings testing his eyesight?
Where were the RAF Police? This could have been a lot more serious.
If he wasn't in it for over 4 hours, with his young kid in the back along with someone who had Covid-19 symptoms and then tested his 'failing' eyesight with an extra hour 'test' flight during Lockdown, then I am not interested... end even then - I am sure No 10 wouldn't be!
That's mad, should take his helicopter off him till all lockdowns are lifted.....unless it was Dominic deciding to test his eyesight again
Was it Cummings air
So?...
What has Cumming been up to again?
Have you tried doing that trip by road? Absolute nightmare. Even Greta advised better to go by plane.
I blame D.C.!
He might’ve been checking his flying eye sight
What’s good for Dominic Cummings is good enough for the British public. ‘Maybe’ the rules were flouted who knows
So? What if he needed to test his eyesight?
Was it to test his eye-sight and did he have his wife and child with him? If so, it’s totally cool. Nothing to see here.
Got a plane to catch!!
What next...Avian flu...
That kind of irresponsibility from a member of the military? Does not seem intelligent enough to be piloting military equipment
Excellent.
Well, he could have been testing his eyesight. Must have been about the same journey time as Dom's.
The perks of being a pilot? Lol
Coordinated ‘blame the public’ announcements
This trip was approved by dominiccummings so that's ok. No need to press charges.
So what....probably just a quick eye test!
Just checking his eyesight before saying it's okay to expose his 16year old niece to a killer virus 🤓. caring
So?
Good for him
Maybe he knows Dominic Cummings?
Good for him! Next time take me with you!
I’m sure he was following his instinct or maybe testing eyesight so it’s perfectly normal
And Nissan moving headquarters to UK isn't news! ScumMedia 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
What's the problem with that? ScumJournalism
He was probably just testing his flying ability 🙄😬
Was his name Dominic ?
Must have infected thousands on that trip! Scrap the licence tax! ScumMedia
His name Dominic? If not he's fine.
I am sure he was just testing his eyesight.
I’m sure he felt that, ‘instinctively’, it was the right thing to do.
Should've just drove to Durham instead as apparently THAT is allowed!!!
eye tests are getting crazy
How desperate he was for holidays 😄
“Going the beach” had to be a Cummingsism
That’s the sort of thing that land you in serious trouble!😂
Still waiting ScumMedia
As long as he had vision problems, Covid symptoms and some kids in the plane he was within the guidelines.
Shit hot opticians in Anglesey though
arrest him and lock him up
Back off him he was testing his eyesight
Did Boris tell you to tweet that ?
Why show jets ? He wasn't flying one ...I think most people know what a aeroplane looks like
How was his eyesight
I legit thought this would be ok. Why cant the pilot do this?
A Tory minister no doubt!
A new PC12 is almost €5 million. Name and shame the dick head.
Brighton's closer
Lucky. I would if I could
DublinAirport is it one of yours again?
Unlike Cummings, he didn’t drive so this pilot hasn’t broke lockdown I suppose
I didn't realise Dominic Cummings had a pilots license
The paradise that is Anglesey😄 More to this🕵️♀️
So what the government said this is fine. Lockdown is over
Fair play. If Cummins can. Anyone can
Couldn’t get an appointment at his local Specsavers.
Tit
Did he fly 30 miles beforehand to make sure he could fly to the beach?
Legend
Maybe he has a child and was following his instincts?
Nothing wrong with that. cummings drive 240 miles with covid symptoms. This guy was just going to the beach - I assume fit and well. Thaaaat’s fine. Nothing wrong with it.
Had to be quicker than taking the bus....
Brilliant! Must be related to Lord Flashart 😂
Well I suppose he followed social distancing while in the air
Was his eyesight a bit dodgy and did he have his wife and 4yr old son on board. If he did, then I think it's ok!
Maybe just a minor infringement on lockdown rules. Perhaps he was just checking his eyesight was ok 🤔
It would have taken ages by car the roads were busy today
I’m sure that’s keeping a 2 meter distance. Why the headline?
If its ok for dom its ok for us
And point being? Our beeches and towns are packed but you lot don’t seem to care unless it supports your spineless agenda 🤡🤡🤡🤡
Lad.
Need to go with your instincts as a pilot, anyone would do the same.
So
Why show Hawk aircraft when it was a PC12 that landed, are you trying to get the Services in trouble.
Don’t tell me Cummings also has a pilot’s licence
Fewer miles than Cummings travelled 🤷♂️
It’s not Captain Cummings is it.
Increasing the rate in a low rate area without a hospital!
Doesn't mention the bit where he was 'impounded' until after 0800 the following day when airfield opened but ignored police instruction and departed anyway.
Show off.
Good for him The old bulldog spirit!
And? I’m sure he felt he was acting legally.
Just checking his eyesight
🎵🎶 It's a long way to Durham It's a long way to go. It's a long way to Durham With the sweetest girl I know! Goodbye Piccadilly Farewell Leicester Square! It's a long long way to Durham But my heart's right there.🎶🎵
Sorry BBC, I'm not distracted by this, what Cummings did was far, far worse.
Does her wear glasses? NotMovingOn
He’s got style, what can you say..
Yes but was he checking his eye sight though ?
classicdom
And why not?
calliebh It’s not breaking any rules!
Your allowed, as long as you don't stay overnight! Give it a f*cling rest!
Sickening. I hope their plane gets crushed by Captain Tom Moore in a giant wheelchair.
I don't know who's worse the pilot or domonic Cummings
Less miles than Dominic Cummings travelled.
What an absolute dominic.
Well if Dominic can do it with no repercussions. We all can... Fly pilot fly... fly to hills and beyond. Be freeeeeeeeee
Held on to his dream
Eye tests are weird in 2020🤷♀️
Taking social distancing to a whole new level
Cummings a pilot now?!
Fair play
As long as he instinctively thought it was the right thing to do for his family, and he was mainly concerned with making sure his eyes were okay, there shouldn't be a problem.
Excellent work!
But that’s less miles than cummings
Was he testing his eyesight?
Good lad !
Cummings Just self isolated with family away from baying mob and it was legal
Not Barnard Castle though!
The literal definition of the upper class lol
Good for him, government tiptoeing out of lockdown so the public don’t question the whole thing.
Ah... not testing his eyesight?
Only acceptable reason
Advanced Sight test?
If Cummings can drive, why pilot cannot fly?
rich people problems.
Why not? Members of the government do this shit.
Subtle!
