Inquiry to Determine if Jet pilot
Inquiry to Determine if Jet pilot and Co-pilot Were Both Asleep
 INDIA , 14-August-2014  2:38:31 AM
Whether a Jet Airways plane plunged 5,000 feet while its pilot was napping and the co-pilot was preoccupied with her tablet is being investigated, the airline said today.

"Jet Airways has initiated an internal inquiry into the matter...Safety is of paramount importance to Jet Airways," said a spokesperson for Jet Airways, adding that all cooperation will be extended to the inquiry being held by the aviation regular, the DGCA.

The pilot of the plane, headed on Friday from Mumbai to Brussels, was taking a scheduled nap or "controlled rest" as required by aviation guidelines, said the Times of India today. Click here to read the story

The report says, "The aviation regulator is probing if the co-pilot too had dozed off."

The plane was in Turkey's airspace and its Air Traffic Control noticed the sudden loss of altitude and reportedly alerted the pilot.
