A Lufthansa Airbus A321-200, on its way to Seville, Spain, was left without a pilot for around ten minutes. This occurred after the first officer experienced a seizure soon after the captain had stepped out of the cockpit for a break.
The incident raises questions about in-flight safety and procedures when both pilots are unavailable to manage the aircraft. The situation underscores the importance of having protocols in place for such unexpected events during flights.
Further details about how the aircraft was managed during those critical minutes have not been disclosed. Lufthansa has yet to provide additional information regarding any changes or reviews they might implement following this incident.
