Passengers on a flight to Ethiopia had a lucky escape when the plane landed safely despite two pilots falling asleep ahead of the descent, say reports.
Flight ET343 was en route from Khartoum in Sudan to Addis Ababa at 37,000 feet when the shocking incident occurred on August 15.
The pilots reportedly fell asleep before they were supposed to make their descent to Addis Ababa Bole Airport and were only awoke when the autopilot disconnected and sounded an alarm after air traffic control had been unsuccessful in attempts to contact the cockpit.
