A pair of senior pilots who allegedly got into a fight and stormed out of the cockpit mid-flight, have been ground by an Indian airliner.

Jet Airways is investigating allegations that a male pilot slapped his female colleague during an argument on a New Year's Day flight from Mumbai to London.

The female pilot is believed to have left the cockpit in tears followed briefly by her co-pilot. As a result the controls were left unattended on the flight which had 323 passengers and 14 crew members aboard.
