Kuwaiti Pilot Has License Revoked For Allowing Cockpit Visitor

Allowed A Former Porn Star To Visit The Front Office On A Flight From London To New York

A Kuwait Airways pilot has reportedly had his license revoked after allowing an ex-porn star to visit the cockpit during a flight from London to New York's JFK airport two years ago.

The Washington Post reports that actress Chloe Khan, a British citizen, said the pilot, who was not named, invited her and a friend into the cockpit during the flight, smoking cigarettes and offering his guests champagne. According to Mafia's testimony, as well as video footage of the incident, the pilot, who is married, serenaded the two and bragged about having sexual relations with flight attendants.

The actress, who goes by Chloe Mafia, took a selfie while sitting near the controls of the aircraft. The U.K. newspaper The Daily Star quoted her as saying that she "pushed something. I don't know what it did but he said it was fine as the plane flew itself." She also described the pilot as a "real sleaze."

The Kuwaiti newspaper al-Jarida reports that investigators concluded that neither the pilot or co-pilot consumed any alcohol during the incident. But Kuwait has ordered the revocation of any pilot who smokes in the cockpit, the report said.

The co-pilot was demoted as a result of the investigation. It was determined that none of the rest of the crew was aware of the incident, and they were not disciplined.
