BA passenger jet makes emergency landing after both pilots 'pass out' at the controls
A British Airways jet was forced to make an emergency landing after both pilots almost 'passed out' at the controls. The Captain and first officer both reported feeling light headed as the aircraft, which had taken off from Heathrow, was climbing at 20,000 feet. As the drama unfolded passengers heard a 'panicked' captain call for a senior member of the cabin crew to come to their aid. (www.dailymail.co.uk) Más...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
Sorry, but I cringe whenever I see this rag-of-a-newspaper's headlines. They are the kings of sensationalism and lose all credibility with me, even if their story is mildly of import.
Well, sounds like training took over. Mr. Murphy came in the door, did his thing and left and nobody found a trace of him nor what he did. All PAX and crew OK; plane went back into service next day with nothing found, no fixes. Stuff Happens.
Trying to put the pieces together; two women pilots, light-headed, breathless, cockpit, Stewards, not Stewardesses running in...
These Monday morning investigations are hard. Time for some chicken and beer!!!

Aren't there carbon monoxide sensors in the cockpit? The strange part of this story is there is no speculation on possible causes.
