The passenger plane carrying 250 people lost contact at a high altitude, which almost caused the fighter jet to take off to intercept it. The result turned out that the two captains fell asleep at the same time. Such an “Oolong” is really incredible. According to reports, on April 30 this year, a passenger plane carrying 250 passengers from New York, the United States to Rome, Italy, lost contact over France for 10 minutes, sparking fears of terrorist attacks and almost alarming France to send fighter jets to intercept. Recently, investigators of the flight accident revealed that the ITA Airways A330 Airbus plane took off from JFK International Airport in New York and bound for Rome, Italy, when it flew to a height of 38,000 feet over France. Contact was lost for nearly 10 minutes after the two pilots on the plane fell asleep in the cockpit at the same time. Investigators said the captain of the airliner fell asleep while one of the pilots slept during a designated break. Air traffic controllers told investigators they lost contact with the plane for about 10 minutes. Fearing a terrorist attack on the passenger plane, they even prepared to send fighter jets to intercept the plane. Fortunately, the pilot finally responded. The passenger plane finally landed safely at Rome Airport.
