According to Switzerland’s La Tribune, the pilot and co-pilot had a disagreement shortly after takeoff and grabbed each other by the collars after one apparently hit the other.
According to the report, cabin crew intervened and one crew member spent the flight in the cockpit with the pilots.
The fight was revealed after France’s air investigation agency, BEA, issued a report on Wednesday, August 2022 claiming that some Air France pilots failed to follow procedures during safety incidents.
