Spicejet: Drink in cockpit results in suspension of two pilots

Advertising

Two pilots of the Indian airline Spicejet have been suspended due to negligent behavior. They are currently not included in any duty roster, the reason for the suspension is that a drink was left in the cockpit.

Recently, the suspension of two pilots from the Indian airline was announced and initiated. They are said to have left an open drink in the cockpit, which is classified as dangerous. The airline became aware of this fact after photos made the rounds on the Internet. One of the posts showed the beverage left in the cockpit, and investigations are underway against the two pilots. The investigations are in full swing and criminal proceedings against them may also be initiated.

Many airlines consider it illegal to leave open liquids in the cockpit. For example, tea in the cockpit was the cause of an engine shutdown on a delta plane in 2020, as aero.de reports.
