The two pilots have been suspended for four years while a cabin crew of Air India has been suspended for one year, sources added. Sources said both the pilots had earlier also tested positive for alcohol but that was during pre-flight examination. This is possibly the first time that pilots have been tested positive for alcohol during tests conducted soon after operating a flight. Sources said a cabin crew member of Air India has also been slapped with one-year suspension after post flight checks found traces of alcohol. Jet Airways said the airline has terminated the services of the cockpit crew member "who had tested positive during a breath analyser test conducted on August 3, 2016".
