Don't fly Air India!
 
FOX News - World - Latest Headlines - Air India pilot reportedly left attendants to fly plane while he took a nap

Both pilots returned to the cockpit 40 minutes later after one of the attendants accidentally knocked off the plane's auto-pilot switch,
They would have been better off just leaving it on Auto_pilot I guess.

Hey that's almost as professional their building owners placing heavy garment manufacturing equipment on the upper-most illegally added-on 6th floor and then forcing the workers to carry on even after the outside of the building had cracked open.

Um, Bangladesh is a country - not part of India.

I would add to avoid flying Air France. Just read the transcripts of the cockpit voice recorder on AF 447. Might have had a better outcome if cabin crew had been doing the flying on that one. Flight deck crew training must be close to nonexistent with that bunch. Must read for pilots. You will be aghast at the incompetence.

Suspended, they should be bring criminal charges against both of them.

A) The factory was in Bangladesh, not India

B) You don't know jack about India.

Well maybe the attendants had watched a youtube on how to fly the plane so it wasn't a problem.

Yes--I was mistaken. Thought this happened in India.
