Sleepy pilots 'left hostesses in charge' - Air India

AN AIR India pilot has been suspended after claims he and his co-pilot left two hostesses in charge of the plane while they slept in business class.

March this year a UN report said India was among the worst 13 countries on the world for air safety.
According to this latest complaint, the Air India co-pilot had asked one of the attendants to sit in his seat while he went to the bathroom, and shortly after the pilot asked another female attendant to take his seat while he left the cockpit to sleep.
Following the complaints, Air India launched an inquiry into the incident and suspended the pilot.
