He's No Captain Sully


A revolt breaks out on a Russian airliner after a pre-flight speech leads passengers to conclude that the pilot is drunk.

The worst part- flight attendants and airline officials ignored the passengers' complaints, telling them it was "not such a big deal" if the pilot was drunk because "the aircraft practically flew itself." That's right folks, no need to take flying lessons; planes apparently do all the work themselves these days.Here's the story.
