Here's the latest development on Air India's Flight AI 611 bound for Delhi
NEW DELHI: Air India has grounded the two pilots involved in a tiff on its Jaipur-Delhi flight on Sunday evening. As reported by Times Of India, the commander of that flight (AI 611) had complained that the co-pilot had misbehaved and hit him when the aircraft was in Jaipur and being prepared for the flight to Delhi.
"Both the pilots have been derostered (means taken off flying duty). An inquiry has been ordered into this," AI spokesman G P Rao said, while adding that there was no violence in the cockpit.
The captain has reportedly told AI that he would not like to fly with the co-pilot again, who has allegedly misbehaved with some other commander in the past too. The commander of AI 611 has given a detailed note of what happened on the flight to the airline operation and despatch units.
The trouble had begun when AI 611 was getting ready to fly for Delhi. The DGCA is also likely to probe this issue.
