Baku / 13.01.20 / Turan: The commander of the AZAL airline airliner left the cockpit several times to go into the passenger compartment and talk with a friend.
Information on the behavior of the pilot Tahir Zarbaliyev, which caused discontent among passengers on the Baku-Moscow flight, is published on the Russian website lenta.ru. There is also a video shot by a passenger, which shows how the pilot Zarbaliyev, standing in the business class cabin, jokes loudly and talks familiarly with a passenger.
