crew rage?
 

From AirDisaster.com News (Cut Version)

A dispute between security guards and crew on board an Iran Air flight about a passenger visiting the cockpit caused the pilot to divert to Frankfurt because he didn't have the morale to continue.

I don't know when this incident happened so I apologise if this is out of date!

I thought crews were supposed to get on with each other! What do you do if you get stuck on a long haul flight with someone you don't like?

I this was a row between the captain and the security guards, rather than amongst the crew themselves. Not sure, but I'd assume the security guards are Revolutionary Guard types - not the type to tolerate arguments and not altogether convinced of the captain's authority.

Still, I imagine (if he's lucky) the captain will get a right clip around the ear when he gets back to Tehran.

No chance of the old jump seat for landing on IR, then?

A clip across the ear???

He'll be lucky if he doesn't get his hand chopped off :eek:
