NEW DELHI: An Air India flight was delayed by three hours after its pilot refused to accept a "dirty" emergency oxygen mask and insisted for a "fresh" one before flying the plane.
Air India has initiated a probe into the incident, which took place yesterday when its Kochi-bound flight from Delhi Airport was readying for take-off.
The same aircraft was to fly on two other routes where too services got delayed because of the pilot's refusal to operate the flight due to "unhygienic" mask in the cockpit, an Air India official said here today.
