Passenger Plane Left Unattended As Both Pilots Fell Asleep.

Two pilots fell asleep while in sole charge of passenger planes thousands of feet up in the air.
Their co-pilots had been on the flight deck at the time and both had been alone in the cockpit, the Civil Aviation Authority revealed.

One one occasion, the captain left to use the toilet and then tried to radio his first officer - but got no reply. He then had to use a code to get back into the cockpit and found his second-in-command slumped over the controls. In the other case flagged up, a pilot returning from his break had to use the entry code to get into the cockpit.
He then shook his co-pilot awake. God will help us oh.
