Nithya Menon has made news for all the wrong reasons again. She was caught redhanded travelling in the cockpit of Air India's Hyderabad-Bangalore flight. The pilots were immediately suspended for allowing the actress to sit in the observer's seat inside the cockpit that was strictly meant for examiners and observers authorised by DGCA. The airlines ordered for an enquiry on the issue.

Actually, This incident happened a month ago and it came to light after a passenger lodged a complaint with the airline. The complainant mentioned that Nithya Menon was permitted to enter the cockpit when the plane was mid-air.

Cockpit is an area from where the pilots control the flight and a door separates the cockpit from the passengers compartment. Allowing the passengers into the cockpit comes under the violation of safety norms.

DGCA has taken the matter seriously and suspended the two pilots namely Jagan M Reddy and S Kiran. What would Nithya do to compensate the loss incurred to the pilots? Let's see!
