The senior pilot of an Air India jet that crashed in May was asleep for most of the flight and then made critical errors because he was disoriented after waking up, according to Indian news reports.
The crash on May 22 in Mangalore, India, killed 158 people after the jet overran the runway and plunged off a cliff.
Capt. Zlatko Glusica was captured loudly snoring on a cockpit recorder, the accident investigation found, according to the Hindustan Times.
After waking, Glusica did not respond when his co-pilot H.S. Ahluwalia repeatedly urged him to abort the landing.
So much for the FAA ever allowing controlled rest like they do in other countries.
