Toonces Alert: Cat Attacks Pilot In Flight

As an investigation got under way into Monday's incident, Mr Sciot explained that it appeared to be essentially a freak accident, caused by a series of circumstances:
• the cat's owner was apparently sleeping when it escaped from its travelling bag
• a child in a neighbouring seat may have interfered with the bag, releasing the cat
• nobody alerted the crew before the cat slipped into the cockpit as meals were being served to the crew
