Drunk pilot sentenced to eight months in prison

Miroslav Gronych, 37, a Slovak national, confessed on 21 March to being disabled while responsible for a flying machine.

He was captured on New Year's Eve in the wake of going out in the cockpit of a Sunwing flight.

He had more than three times the lawful furthest reaches of liquor in his body.

As indicated by an announcement read to the court in March, the co-pilot recommended that Gronych leave the plane, yet he sat in the pilot's seat and seemed to go out "laying his face on the window".

His pilot's wings were joined topsy turvy on his uniform and a void jug of vodka was later found in his inn room. Bulk whatsapp sms service provider
