O que: Continental Airlines Boeing 777-200 rota de Bruxelas, Bélgica para Newark,NJ ?Onde:rota?Quando:18 de Junho 2009
Quem:247 passageiros e 3 tripulantes
Por que: Quatro horas de vôo em cima do Atlântico e o capitão morreu. Os outros dois co-pilotos controlaram o vôo e aterrissaram com segurança em Newark.
Opinião: O salário de um co-piloto é em média de $11/hora.
Um co-piloto deve ter um salário “profissional”, pois se algo acontece com o piloto, o co-piloto se torna o piloto principal. Nesse caso, a Continental teve sorte de ter dois co-pilotos no avião que aparentemente tinham boa experiência. Algumas vezes, os co-pilotos não têm muita experiência, o que pode causar uma tragédia.
