Southwest Pilots Fired for Disrobing in Cockpit
From Times Wire Reports
Southwest Airlines has fired two pilots who reportedly took off all or part of their clothes in the cockpit while in flight, then summoned a flight attendant to bring them paper towels and carbonated water.
The pilots have appealed. They argued that one of them removed his uniform after spilling coffee, and that the flight attendant saw them when she complied with their request to bring paper towels to the cockpit.
