A married British Airways pilot has been suspended over claims he assaulted three female crew members during a stop-over flight.
The father-of-two,who is in his 50s,allegedly went for a boozy night out during a layover in Johannesburg when he got into an argument with his 25-year-old lover,who had flown to the country with him on a discounted ticket.
He later confronted three of his fellow colleagues, a cabin manager,a first class stewardess and an in-flight lead,in the bar of a Marriott Hotel where they were staying,the Sun reported.
The pilot was barely able to stand and was eventually escorted to his room by hotel security staff,the Sun added.
The next day,the crew refused to operate the plane with him on board and the man was forced to fly home in disgrace as a passenger on a different flight.
The pilot has since been suspended for the incident which took place after a BA flight from Heathrow (pictured) to Johannesburg
