Flying is stressful then….

Posted on: November 20th, 2008 by Gareth Robinson

Are you a nervous flyer? How many times have you been reassured by that smooth talking captain and co-pilot? You’re safe in the knowledge that they’re really calm and capable and well adjusted.

However, sometimes it goes a little wrong. News has been released of an incident last year about a co-pilot who had a nervous breakdown mid-flight.

This, in a true-airplane-style event meant an air stewardess had to help the pilot land the Air Canada plane in Ireland.

The co-pilot, apparently was restrained and sedated after being rambling and disjointed.

And you thought your job was stressful.
