Fly The Not So Friendly Skies

The 106 Air India passengers that flew from the United Arab Emirates to Delhi Saturday won't soon forget the in flight 'entertainment'. Apparently the pilots and flight attendants had a fight which started in the cockpit, but spilled out into the galley. Not just an argument, but a fight with fists thrown and bruises incurred by one pilot and one female flight attendant. The cabin crew are claiming sexual harassment by the pilots and the pilots are claiming improper behavior by the cabin crew. All employees involved are grounded till an investigation is completed. They should go to bed without dinner too for scaring the passengers. If two passengers argued and came to blows during a flight I'm guessing THEY would be arrested upon landing.

i found this to be just unbelievable. regardless who started it i think any of them involved in the altercation should be fired i wouldn't want to fly with anyone who couldn't put something like this aside for the safety and well-being of 106 people. wow!

yes doug, and justifiably so but what do they do if the whole flight crew brawls midflight?
