WATCH: Pilot Asks Air Traffic Control For Two Pints Following Stressful Desmond Flight

The poor crater.

We all know how it feels to crave a frosty one after a long day at work.

So we completely understand where this wrecked Aer Lingus pilot was coming from after battling through Storm Desmond yesterday.

Once he had safely landed, his first port of call was to make sure Air Traffic Control had two well-deserved pints of Carlsberg waiting for him.

Stephen Bergin sent the clip into our bros at JOE.ie, noting:

“While the ground crew of VideoBase.ie were busy filming during Storm Desmond, our drone operator was slacking as it was too windy to fly.

“Like the rest of the country, he was keeping up to date with the storm and even listening to Air Traffic Control.

“He quickly put together this video after hearing a pilot order two pints of Carlsberg after landing at Dublin during Storm Desmond.”
