According to reports, a disagreement between the two pilots became so heated it came to physical blows as the pair operate an Airbus A320 flight in June. The exchange was so loud and aggressive that members of the cabin crew had to intervene and remain in the cockpit until the plane had landed safely.
This is the latest in a series of events that have led the French air investigation authorities to issue a report on how Air France had a relaxed attitude when it came to safety procedures.
