Rats-in-an-air-india-plane-rappler-20140806

Air India Aircraft (Air India) was forced to make an emergency landing at the airport in Calcutta after finding a large number of uninvited guests aboard.

Passengers of the Indian carrier began complaining about the presence of rats immediately after take-off. It turned out that on board the plane there were dozens of rodents, which poses a serious danger during the flight. "Rats on board an aircraft can lead to disaster if chewing electrical wires begin. If this happens, the pilots will lose control of all the systems on board, "the commander explained.

Representatives of the Indian airline say that the reason for the survivability of rats on board the aircraft is that passengers drop a lot of food. They get on board rodents, most likely in food vans. "This is a common phenomenon. Rats live in vans, in which food is stored. This is common all over the world, "reassure the representatives of Air India.

However, the airline employees still admit that such a phenomenon is not normal, and now Air India has begun a global check of all its aircraft. August 18, 2014
