Pilots sleep as flight attendant turns off autopilot on Bangkok-Delhi flight
Bipin Kumar Singh, Mumbai Mirror | May 3, 2013, 01.57 PM IST
MUMBAI: Two Air India pilots put the lives of 166 passengers on a Bangkok-Delhi flight in danger by taking a 40-minute break from
the cockpit and getting two flight attendants to operate the plane in their absence. Their stunt almost ended in disaster after one
of the flight attendants accidentally turned off the auto-pilot, forcing the pilots to rush back to their seats.

The incident took place 33,000 feet in the air on Air India flight AI 133 (an Airbus 321) from Bangkok to Delhi on April 12, which took
off from Bangkok on schedule, at 8.55 am.

Thirty minutes later, First Officer Ravindra Nath excused himself from the cockpit for a bathroom break and got flight attendant J Bhatt
to occupy his seat in his absense. "According to the guidelines it is a standard procedure to ensure the presence of second person in
the cockpit so that if the pilot is not able to operate the aircraft for some reason, the other crew member in the cockpit can immediately
call for the other pilot. But what actually happened after this made a mockery of air safety," said a a source in Air India, who did not
wish to be named.

Minutes after his co-pilot left the cockpit, Captain B K Soni called another flight attendant, Kanika Kala, and asked her to take his seat.
Captain Soni did not leave the cockpit immediately; instead, he spent a few minutes teaching the two flight attendants how to operate
the aircraft.

He left the cockpit after putting the plane on auto-pilot, leaving the flight attendants to operate the flight by themselves for the next 40
minutes while he and his co-pilot took a nap in business class.

Putting an aircraft on auto-pilot does not exempt pilots from remaining in the cockpit; their presence is required to monitor the flight's
status and turn off auto-pilot if required. This was illustrated perfectly when Captain Soni and First Officer Nath were forced to rush back
to their seats after one of the flight attendants accidentally switched off the auto-pilot, endangering the lives of everyone on board.

"A senior cabin crew member witnessed the entire drama unfold and brought the matter to the notice of the airline's management. All four
were derostered and later suspended for this violation," added the Air India source.

Director General Arun Mishra of the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA), confirmed that all four employees had been suspended.
"Following a safety violation, the airline has already suspended the people in question. We are conducting a inquiry into the matter," Mishra
told Mumbai Mirror.

Captain Mohan Ranganathan, member of a government-appointed aviation safety panel, blamed the 'lackadaisical attitude' of the DGCA for
the increase in air safety violations. "The DGCA should be held responsible for the increase in such cases as they have failed time and again
to effectively enforce safety guidelines," said Ranganathan.

K Swaminathan, deputy general manager (corporate communications), Air India, did not comment on the incident, saying, "Your query has
been referred to the concerned department for comment. We will revert to you on receiving their reply."


Da ne prevajam, tale "cockpit" si pa res zasluži ime "kokošnjak" ali celo "petelinišče" (dobesedno iz slovarja: cockpit = petelinje bojišče).
In s temi naj bi se mi družili, kajne? :oops:

pilot fatigue.

ryanair se (je) trudi, da bi lahko bil v cocpitu samo en pilot in bi mu stevka/stevard pomagal, če bi blo kaj narobe. Air India je pač to poskusil v praksi in poklical kar dve stevki, da se reveža odpočijeta. In to celih 40min. Zgleda, da v Airbus-u pač ni možno, da bi stevke letele, ali pa so jo preveč prsti srbeli kaj naj bi ta gumb počel in je pač probala.

Dejansko je malo verjetno, da sta res oba pilota zapustila cocpit in šla spat(se pa tudi nebi čudil če bi blo res), bolj verjetno je, da so bili vsi štirje v cocpitu in so pač izbrali ponesrečen položaj, za tisto kar so pač počeli.

Running Joke za Airbuse je, da ima mizica, ki se jo potegne ven izpod PFD in ND ja nosilnost 70 kil, tko da ;-)

Hec na stran, na airbusih je dovolj da z roko, ali kolenom samo malenkostno drezneš sidsteck, da vrže ven AP…
