A BA insider claimed there were 'no reported underlying health conditions' in both the crew members who died.
Speaking of the double-death blow, a source told The Sun said colleagues were in 'shock and disbelief'.
'It has been a traumatic festive period for BA’s flying team. Everyone is deeply upset,' they said.
Paying tribute, British Airways said the company's thoughts were with the families of the fallen colleagues.
An official cause of death for both crew members has yet to be determined.
I know it’s just a steward, but I’m surprised planes haven’t started to fall out of the sky at an alarming rate. I know they can remotely land a commercial plane in the event a pilot dies mid-flight but I’m talking about small planes too. I’m truly surprised there hasn’t been an increase of hobbyists crashing their planes because they have every booster known to man. Or is it the pilot community is more based than expected?
I will never step foot on a plane unless I know everyone in the cockpit is pure blood. Remote flying capability or not. No need to take that chance.
Less than 10% of airports can handle an ILS Cat III landing and not all airplanes are equipped with the system.
I remember the icepocalypse that hit Dallas a couple years ago and looked at radar.
Zero visibility.
Most of the planes diverted to Oklahoma City or Houston.
I am not a pilot, but know a few and asked them about it
They then explained the ILS III system.
Maybe, a pilot can add?
I know of a pilot for a smaller private jet company and he was not to get it... he's flown celebrities and such. Definitely an intentional move. His wife is based and he doesn't want to 'go there' but I think he doesn't want a targeted hit on his craft...
