British Airways pilot back in the skies after snorting drugs off woman's breasts before flight

Back in 2023, British Airways pilot Mike Beaton got the boot after turning a woman’s chest into his personal cocaine buffet before a flight. Yep, the married dad of one was caught red-nosed and bragging about it.

The airline sniffed out his antics—literally—drug-tested him, and kicked him to the curb after he partied harder than a rockstar in South Africa. Set to fly from Johannesburg to London, Beaton texted his stewardess pal, “I’ve been a very naughty boy,” per The Sun. BA canceled the flight, flushing £93,000 down the drain to avoid Captain Coke steering the plane.

Now, in a plot twist dumber than a bag of hammers, Beaton’s back in the pilot seat, this time with European Cargo out of Bournemouth. The Civil Aviation Authority, which usually yanks licenses faster than you can say “just say no,” claims they’d only let him fly again if they were “completely satisfied.” Sure, because nothing screams “reformed” like a guy who once treated a stranger’s torso like a powder tray.

An aviation busybody told the rag, “It’s revolting he’s airborne again—CAA should’ve grounded him for good.” European Cargo, yawning, insists all their wingmen meet standards.

The Sun dug up his old texts, where Beaton gloated about stumbling from a nightclub to a flat with a Welsh gal, a Spanish lass, and some locals. “Lost my shirt, someone whipped out coke, and we debated the best chest for a bump,” he crowed. “That’s how I ended up snorting off a girl’s t**s in Joburg.” Classy.

So, while you’re sipping stale coffee at 30,000 feet, just pray your pilot’s not reminiscing about his wilder days—one line at a time.
