Two United Airlines pilots have been suspended after allowing an unauthorized person into the cockpit during a chartered flight. It happened when the Colorado Rockies were flying to play the Toronto Blue Jays earlier this month. Rockies hitting coach Hensley Meulens posted a since-deleted video on Instagram showing him sitting in the pilot’s seat while the plane is on autopilot at cruising altitude. This is against F-A-A regulations, but I’m sure he had a really good time.
