Brussels/Cologne (Alliance News) - The European Aviation Safety Agency is temporarily advising airlines to ensure that at least two crew members are in the cockpit at any one time.
EASA recommends that airlines "re-assess the safety and security risks associated with flight crew members leaving the flight crew compartment due to operational or physiological needs during non-critical phases of flight," it says in a statement.
The advice is "based on the information currently available following the accident of flight 4U9525, and pending the outcome of the technical investigation," EASA adds.
The recommendation is not binding.
