You know, as airline pilots and military pilots, basic personality traits include healthy amounts of self confidence, pride and rather oversized egos. She already got the payday with the airline job. Nobody would subject themselves to this unless they were very angry and felt betrayed and let down by the company doing nothing after they were given every opportunity.

You are probably right...just trying to see things from all angles.

I do believe I received a spiked drink in Europe a few years ago.

Was with a crowd of 8 or 9 pilots/flight attendants having drinks. Someone had provided one of the gals with a drink that she decided she didn't want. She kept encouraging others to take the drink. I ended drinking part of the drink. Shortly after that realized I was really drunk and then became sick. All of the symptoms.

It wasn't until a year later, after hearing the details of one of our female pilots receiving a roofie, that I realized what had happened to me.

Knowing all of the players, I believe my spiked drink came from the bar intended for the F/A ... Which was next the the F/As hotel.

I apologize for the insensitive post earlier; I hadn't had a drink yet.

I really am a sensitive guy. As a matter of fact, the last time I had sex, I cried.

So far he's found stuff that has nothing to do with the scope of what he's looking for.

So you should wait until you have a few years of experience before reporting your rape?

I think you should report something like that any time it happens.

And a hypothetical predator always goes for the weak victim, a noob on probation fits the bill nicely, hypothetically.

Well a roofie would take the edge off that.

Completely missed my question.
This F/O has gone public with a claim that sexual assault is rampant in the airline industry.

I don't agree with that part. But I am a large, fit, former high-end ground combat type, so any wannabe predators probably take a pass on me. I might have missed it. I do have a (hot) friend who quit a good-ol boy regional after a few months because every married lifer CA was hitting on her.

Her background doesn't match the profile of a professional plaintiff.
