Passengers to sue airline over pilot's comments

Passengers on an internal flight in Brazil are suing the airline over “inappropriate” comments made by the pilot.

They say the pilot made them feel “scared and nervous” with his comments on a flight from Rio de Janeiro to Vitoria.

The Gol airlines flights was scheduled to take one hour but took more than five hours and ended up at a different airport.

Passenger Ari Vieira Augusto told Terra Noticias Populares: “When he announced we couldn't land in Vitoria due to bad weather, he said he had some good news and some bad news.

”The good news was that he had made a good take off and the bad was that no airplanes were being successful in landing at our destination, and he didn't explain anything else.

“He was crazy, irresponsible and a joker. He said we were 10,000 feet above ground, 46 celsius degrees below zero and that he wouldn't advise anyone to get out of the airplane without a heavy coat.”

Passengers also told how the pilot insisted on trying to land at Vitoria even after he knew the conditions weren't good.

They say he got to within 200 metres of the runway when he suddenly turned away, terrifying the passengers. The plane went on to land in the city of Belo Horizonte after another hour.

Passenger Henrique Rebelo added: “At the end the pilot even had the nerve to ask if we were as dizzy as him because of all the turns he had to make!”
