UNCOVERED: Pilot jailed for lying about flying experience to get british airways job fdc9eca8 d196 4fe2 a209 b5d8b87dbbdc - Caught on Camera

A pilot has been jailed for lying about his flying experience to get a job with British Airways.

Craig Butfoy, 49, made false entries in his logbook to appear more experienced than he was in a bid to impress BA CityFlyer, a subsidiary of British Airways, and former Irish regional airline Stobart Air.

He also fabricated documents, including a training course certificate, and falsely claimed to have flown 1,610 hours as a captain in his job application to BA CityFlyer, according to court documents.
