South Africa Halts Mile-High Gay Discrimination Suit
http://www.365gay.com/newscon05/01/012705baSuit.htm

this title is very misleading

I thought it was about the Mile High Club

it's not

A South Africa court has ruled that a Cape Town man's $260,000 discrimination against British Airways cannot proceed because it occurred in the air.

Neal Potgieter says the incident, which took place in September 2000, while he and his partner were on an overnight flight to London, led to a series of events that ended with Potgieter being jailed for three days in London. (story)

Potgieter says that he and his partner, who has not been named, fell asleep, like most of the other passengers on the overnight flight.
