A Lufthansa pilot changes course and responds in protest (Photo: PR)
This was supposed to be a routine landing for Lufthansa Flight 306, which was about to arrive in Catania, Sicily. The problem is that after a fire at Fontanarossa Airport during the month, operations were curtailed and the crew was instructed to land in Malta.
One of the pilots did not accept the order well and decided to protest. With a flight path during which he drawd, as you can see in the photo of Flightradar.com, a penis. It took him 16 minutes, for those who are interested.
The company's official response was that this route was created "by chance," but let's just say that's probably inaccurate. Last year, one of the US Air Force pilots did something similar, only then it had wide-ranging political significance, since it happened over Siberia in Russia. In 2017, two other American pilots did it "for fun."
