Indian Pilot jumps out of cockpit over fear of a passenger having Covid-19
A suspected coronavirus patient sitting on the first row of a plane led to such scare that all passengers disembarked from the rear exit and the captain via the cockpit.
This happened on an AirAsia India flight I5-732 from Pune to Delhi on March 20. The passengers were subsequently screened and tested negative. An AirAsia India spokesperson said: "There was a case reported of suspected Covid-19 passengers aboard I5-732, Pune to New Delhi on 20th March 2020, seated in Row 1. The passengers were subsequently screened and tested negative.
As a safety measure after landing, the aircraft was parked at a remote bay and suspected passengers disembarked from the front door. All other passengers, escorted by the crew, disembarked from the rear door of the aircraft.” “Crew in the cockpit self-quarantined till the cabin environment near the primary exit was ascertained to be safe. The captain elected to disembark from the secondary exit using a secure trestle, given the close proximity of the seats from the cockpit. The aircraft was fumigated and a thorough disinfection and deep cleaning was carried out,” the spokesperson added.
