A Heathrow pilot was prevented from taking to the air with 300 passengers because he reeked of alcohol.
Michael Harr, 62, was escorted from the aircraft by armed security police after having been breathalysed. The police had been tipped off by vigilant airport staff who smelt alcohol on the pilot as he boarded the aircraft.
The Jet Airways flight, bound for Mumbai in India, was delayed until a sober replacement pilot could take the controls.
