Drama u zraku

Pilot preminuo za vrijeme leta

Prava drama odvijala se u srijedu na letu Turkish Airlinesa iz Seattlea u Istanbul. Zrakoplov je prisilno sletio u New York zbog smrti 59-godišnjeg pilota! Drama se zbila u Airbasu A350-900, kada je pilotu koji je upravljao zrakoplovom pozlilo. Odmah mu je u pomoć priskočila posada, a kopilot je preuzeo upravljanje zrakoplovom. Unatoč naporima osoblja i liječnika, koji se zatekao u zrakoplovu kao putnik, pilot je preminuo prije slijetanja u New York. Prije nekoliko mjeseci prošao je strogi liječnički pregled Turkish Airlinesa.
