Two more Air India pilots fail drug tests: Report

Two more Air India pilots have failed their preliminary drug tests, following a recent incident on a Phuket-Delhi flight, an NDTV report said, citing sources.

The airline had ordered all its pilots to undergo drug testing as part of new standard operating procedures (SOPs) after the pilot-in-command of the flight tested positive for marijuana.

The two de-rostered pilots are now awaiting final test results, which typically take 24-48 hours.
